- On Saturday, Ifunanya Nwangene, known as Nanyah Music, reportedly died after a snake bite at her residence in Abuja, Nigeria, with no official confirmation from family or authorities.
- Nwangene, 26, rose to prominence after appearing on The Voice Nigeria in 2021 and combined music with architectural training, while planning her first solo concert later this year, Sam Ezugwu said.
- Friends said the singer was asleep when the snake bite woke her, two snakes were later found, and videos show a snake handler removing a snake from her apartment while bystanders shout `It is a cobra!`.
- While staff tried to stabilise her, she could not speak but was struggling to breathe, and Amemuso Choir members went to the hospital hoping for a miracle.
- The World Health Organization says snakebites cause about 30,000 deaths annually in Africa, with antivenom shortages and refrigeration issues pushing many victims to traditional healers.
