Lucky Elohor, a Nigerian digital creator and online business coach known on social media as Digital Creator Chic, has died at 29.
Her death was confirmed on her official Instagram page on Tuesday. She died on February 9.
In a statement posted with her obituary, her family said:
“It is with profound sorrow that the family announces the passing of our beloved Lucky Elohor.
Elohor was a light, full of purpose, grace, and an unwavering commitment to impacting lives. She built with intention, loved deeply, and served selflessly through her work, her community, and her faith.
Though our hearts are heavy, we are comforted by the assurance that she has gone to be with the Lord, and that her legacy will continue to live on through the many lives she touched.
We ask for your prayers, love, and respect for the family during this time of mourning. Further details will be communicated in due course.”
A woman close to Elohor shared on social media that the accident occurred when a pothole caused the crash. After the accident, she said, there was no emergency rescue service to take her and others quickly to a hospital, and they were left waiting. When help eventually came, the nearby public hospital was on strike, and private facilities were reported to lack essential equipment. According to the post, the nearest working MRI machine was in another city, and Elohor did not survive the delay in getting the care she needed.
Lucky Elohor was the founder of the GROW Network, an online platform aimed at career development and growth. She used her social media channels to teach business skills, personal development, and online entrepreneurship to many followers.
Reactions have poured in from friends, clients, and followers on social media.
