Popular Nigerian gospel singer, Sammie Okposo, is dead, according to multiple sources.

The veteran singer was said to have slumped and died at his home on Friday morning.

Okposo made headlines early this year when he took to his verified Instagram page to apologize to his wife, Ozioma after cheating on her with another woman in the United States.
