Singer Rexxie has recently voiced his sentiments about the reaction of Nigerians to the untimely passing of fellow artist Mohbad.
In a candid interview, Rexxie expressed his disappointment, suggesting that many Nigerians were treating Mohbad’s death as a joke or a source of entertainment rather than showing genuine concern.
According to Rexxie, it appeared that some individuals were using Mohbad’s demise as fodder for amusement or “cruise,” a term often used to describe light-hearted banter or jokes. He lamented that this lack of sincerity in response to a tragedy was disheartening.
The death of Mohbad, which occurred on September 12, 2023, shocked the Nigerian music industry and his fans. Initial reports indicated that Mohbad was found slumped in a car, sparking speculation and allegations surrounding the circumstances of his passing.
Despite ongoing investigations and an autopsy reportedly conducted, the exact cause of Mohbad’s death remains elusive. The police had previously issued a statement urging sympathizers and fans to refrain from using his death as a subject of humour or entertainment due to its serious nature.
