A Nigerian pop star, Oladipupo Olabode Oladimenji, more popular as Oladips, has died.

According to a statement posted on his Instagram page, he passed away at exactly 10:14 pm on Tuesday night.

Before the video started to circulate, Oladips had taken to his Instagram stories to cry out for help.

In the post, he mentioned one of his friends, @onlyonelifetime, and asked where he was. The rapper complained about how he had tried to reach the friend on the phone several times and how they knew he didn’t like to be left alone in the house, especially with his condition.
