Viral reports this morning that a Nigerian reggae and R&B music artist, Skiibii Mayana fondly called Swaggerlee of Africa reportedly died this morning isn’t true after all.
DAILY POST recalls that just a few hours ago, the 22-year-old ‘Sampu’ crooner allegedly collapsed in his sitting room and before anyone could get to the scene, he gave up the ghost.
The report had claimed that he was dressed up and headed for his media rounds today when he suddenly fell and was unable to be resuscitated.
This however, is not true, as according to reports, it was only a ‘sick’ publicity stunt.
There are indications that he came up with the sickening act to promote his upcoming song.
A source in the music industry, who confided in DAILY POST, said the report of his death was a complete stunt, just for him to trend.
Skiibii’s latest publicity stunt may be the latest and the crudest lately, but it actually follows the trend among Nigerian acts who sometimes pull stunts to get attention, fame or in a way, announce an upcoming event.
