Gospel singer Alayo Melody has revealed that plans to fly the late Bunmi Akinnaanu, also known as Omije Ojumi, to India for medical treatment were halted because she was too weak.
He shared the details in a video on his Instagram page on Thursday while speaking about the struggles of his colleague before her death.
In the video, Alayo Melody said:
“I appreciate everyone who stood by Omije Oju mi when she was sick. Prophet Sam Ojo and Prophet Taiwo Ojo really did a lot. There was a time we decided to fly her out to India and these two prophets decided to foot the bill of the visa processing and medical treatment. The application was done three times before it was approved. By the time the visa was approved, Omije was so weak and the doctors said she was not fit to fly.”
He also appealed to prophets to avoid sharing visions of death online. “I want to appeal to prophets to stop going on the social media and telling their followers that they saw death visions about our celebs. If you see any bad vision about anyone, please contact them privately. Everybody will d!e one day. May God bless us with long life. We shall communicate the burial arrangements for Omije soon.”
Bunmi Akinnaanu dies on January 12, in Lagos. She was 46 and was known for her hit song ‘Omije Ojumi,’ which became popular in Nigerian churches and Christian homes. She left a banking career to focus on gospel music full time.
