Nigerian singer Niniola has announced the death of her husband, Michael Ndika, in an emotional revelation that has shocked fans and members of the entertainment industry.
The Afro-house star shared the heartbreaking news through a series of posts on her Instagram Story in the early hours of Wednesday, May 20. In the posts, she wrote, “God took him,” before adding, “My husband died.”
She later revealed that they had been together for 13 years, writing, “God took him. 13 years. 13 f***ing years.”
The announcement came as a surprise to many fans, as the singer had kept her relationship and marriage away from the public eye throughout her career. Until the posts surfaced online, many people were unaware that the singer was married.
According to reports, Michael Ndika was the Chief Executive Officer of NaijaReview, a multimedia platform focused on Afro-house and African music promotion.
As of the time of this report, details surrounding his death have not been made public, and the singer has not released any additional statement beyond the emotional social media posts.
