Four Nigerians, including gospel musician Matthew Ogundele, were found dead inside a music studio located in the Abraham Adesanya area of Ajah, Lagos State, sparking widespread concern within the entertainment and Christian communities.
The other deceased individuals were identified as Itunu Ogundele, Joseph Sanya, and a blogger, Matthew Awosanya, popularly known as JoesTv.
Why the Artistes Were at the Studio
The victims were reportedly invited to minister on Tuesday as part of a three-day birthday praise programme organised by fellow gospel artiste Olanireti Akinbola. The event commenced on Monday, with Matthew Ogundele and his team scheduled to minister on the second day.
A police source disclosed on Saturday that the artistes arrived at the studio in the evening and performed late into the night. Due to the late hour, they reportedly decided to remain in the studio overnight.
Their lifeless bodies were discovered the following morning.
“The convener organised a three-day birthday praise programme which began on Monday. Matthew Ogundele and his crew were billed to minister on Tuesday. The programme lasted late, so they chose to sleep in the studio. It was the next morning that information filtered in that they had been found dead,” the source said.
Christian Blog Confirms Overnight Stay
A Christian blog, Omojesu, also reported the incident via a Facebook post, stating that the victims decided to stay overnight because of the distance between the studio and their homes.
“In pursuit of a better life, a blogger known as JoesMediaTv and three musicians were reportedly invited to perform at a virtual birthday praise event at a studio around Ajah. Due to the distance, they decided to sleep over. Sadly, they were said to have passed away in their sleep,” the post read.
Police Report and Public Reaction
The incident was subsequently reported at the Ajiwe Police Station in Ajah. Since the news broke, friends, colleagues, and sympathisers have taken to social media to demand justice and clarity regarding the circumstances surrounding the deaths.
Images circulating online showing what appeared to be blood stains around the noses, mouths, and ears of the victims have further heightened public concern and speculation.
Lagos Police Confirm Incident
Confirming the development, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Abimbola Adebisi, said the case was reported on Wednesday by the studio owner, Akintayo Akinbola, who is also the husband of the birthday celebrant.
According to her, Akinbola informed the police that he left the artistes inside his studio, located within the HFP Shopping Complex, on Tuesday night after purchasing food for them while they prepared for a music concert.
“He stated that the artistes returned to the studio with the food while he went home. However, at about 11 a.m. on Wednesday, he returned and discovered that the studio door was locked from the inside,” Adebisi said.
She added that he raised an alarm, and the door was subsequently forced open, revealing the bodies of the four individuals inside the studio.
Autopsy and Investigation Ongoing
SP Adebisi disclosed that detectives immediately visited the scene and documented their findings, noting that no visible signs of violence were observed on the bodies.
“The corpses were taken to the Mainland Hospital, Yaba, where a medical doctor confirmed them dead. They were later deposited at the Mainland General Hospital mortuary for autopsy and preservation,” she stated.
She further revealed that the case has been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, Yaba, for a comprehensive investigation to determine the exact cause of death.
It is with deep sadness that we confirm the passing of beloved Yoruba actress, Aunty Ajara.
According to family sources, a doctor confirmed her death to loved ones earlier today, Thursday, February 5, 2026, following a brief but serious battle with liver-related illness.
In a now-viral video shared online, the late actress’s elder brother, Ridwan Lazeez, broke the news while expressing heartfelt gratitude to the public. He thanked everyone who supported Aunty Ajara financially, through prayers, and with kind messages during her illness.
Mama No Network, who had been closely following and sharing updates about her condition, posted the following announcement on Instagram:
“With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved actress, Aunty Ajara. She passed on overnight after a long and courageous battle with illness.
During this difficult period, Ajara received immense love, prayers, and financial support from kind-hearted people across the world. We are deeply grateful to everyone who stood by her with prayers, contributions, encouragement, and compassion.
At this moment, we kindly urge family, friends, and the general public to please stop sending money to the previously shared account, as it is no longer required.
Our thoughts and prayers are with her family, loved ones, and everyone grieving this painful loss. May her soul rest in perfect peace.”
Her passing comes just days after several colleagues and fans rallied online to solicit financial support for her medical treatment.
Aunty Ajara will be remembered for her unique presence, humour, and memorable roles in Yoruba films.

Three decades after his death, Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti has reached a historic milestone, becoming the first African artist to receive a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
The legendary Nigerian musician, who passed away in 1997, was honoured posthumously at a ceremony in Los Angeles on Saturday, held on the eve of the 68th Annual Grammy Awards. He was recognised alongside several other global music figures. For members of Fela’s family and those closest to his legacy, the moment represents both celebration and reflection; a powerful acknowledgement of his impact that many feel came long after it was due.
Fela’s daughter, Yeni Kuti, described the family’s reaction as one of joy mixed with honesty. She said they were excited that his work is finally being recognised at the highest level, while also noting that Fela was never nominated for a Grammy during his lifetime. To her, the honour feels like a case of “better late than never,” but also a reminder that African artists still have a long journey toward equal recognition on the global stage.
Renowned Nigerian artist Lemi Ghariokwu, who designed 26 of Fela’s iconic album covers, said the moment highlights how much more effort African creatives often have to put in to be seen and celebrated internationally. He expressed pride at witnessing Fela become the first African to receive the honour, calling it meaningful to see one of their own acknowledged at such a prestigious level.
Ghariokwu admitted he was initially surprised by the news, especially given Fela’s lifelong resistance to authority and institutions. He pointed out the irony of an establishment honouring an artist who built his legacy on challenging power. Still, he imagined that Fela would have taken quiet satisfaction in knowing his voice and message ultimately commanded global attention.
“I can even picture him raising his fist and saying: ‘You see, I got them now, I got their attention!”
Despite the significance of the award, Yeni Kuti believes her father himself would not have been overly moved by it. She explained that Fela was never driven by trophies or formal recognition. Music, for him, was an expression of love, truth, and resistance, and what mattered most was being heard and understood by the people and by fellow artists.
That sentiment was echoed by Yemisi Ransome-Kuti, Fela’s cousin and head of the Kuti family, who said he was never concerned with public approval or industry validation. According to her, Fela was deeply focused on how his work could shape his profession, his community, and Africa as a whole.
While she believes the award may not have held personal meaning for him, Ransome-Kuti said Fela would have recognised its wider importance. He would have seen it as a positive step toward giving African excellence its rightful place on the global stage, while also asking what more needed to be done to shine a light on the many African philosophers, musicians, historians, and creatives whose contributions remain overlooked.
In many ways, the honour does more than celebrate Fela’s music – it reinforces the lasting power of his ideas, his courage, and his unwavering commitment to speaking truth, even decades after his voice fell silent.

Hollywood actress Catherine O’Hara, celebrated for her iconic roles in Home Alone and Schitt’s Creek, has passed away at the age of 71.
Her agency, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), confirmed that O’Hara died at her home in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles. The cause of death has not been disclosed.
O’Hara first rose to international fame as the frantic yet devoted mother of Macaulay Culkin’s character in the first two Home Alone films. She later won critical acclaim and a new generation of fans for her role as Moira Rose in the Emmy-winning comedy series Schitt’s Creek, appearing in all 80 episodes.
Her impressive filmography also includes Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Best in Show (2000), A Mighty Wind (2003), and numerous other projects that cemented her reputation as one of comedy’s most distinctive performers.
A Canadian native who began her career in improvisational comedy, O’Hara enjoyed a career spanning decades across film, television, and stage. She is survived by her family and leaves behind a lasting legacy in comedy and popular culture.
Nollywood actor and filmmaker Stanley Amandi has been detained alongside a group of military officers accused of plotting a violent takeover of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
A source within the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) disclosed that Amandi, a former chairman of the guild’s Enugu State chapter, was arrested in September 2025. According to the source, the actor-director was allegedly recruited by the suspected coup plotters to serve as a media propagandist. The group is also accused of planning the assassination of top government officials.
Officials familiar with the investigation had earlier revealed that the alleged plot involved a coordinated plan to seize power by force. Those reportedly marked for assassination included President Bola Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, and Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajudeen Abbas.
On Monday, the Defence Headquarters confirmed that an illegal scheme aimed at removing the Tinubu administration had been uncovered. It added that the military officers implicated in the plot would be tried before appropriate military judicial panels.
In an official statement, the Defence Headquarters said investigations into the matter had been completed and forwarded to “appropriate superior authority in line with extant regulations.” The military described the investigation as “comprehensive,” noting that it examined “all circumstances surrounding the conduct of the affected personnel.”
The statement further revealed that the inquiry identified “a number of officers with allegations of plotting to overthrow the government,” stressing that such actions were “inconsistent with the ethics, values and professional standards required of members of the Armed Forces of Nigeria.”
Amandi is a well-known figure in the Nigerian film industry, with experience both in front of and behind the camera as an actor, director, and production manager. His body of work includes The Album, which he directed; Tiger King (2008), where he served as director and producer; Cornerstone (2019); and Once Upon a Dream (2024), in which he appeared as an actor.
His last activity on Instagram was recorded on September 19, 2025, just days before his arrest.

Legendary Nigerian musician and pioneer of Afrobeat, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, has been selected as a recipient of the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, making history as the first African artist to receive the honour.
The Recording Academy disclosed that Fela will be celebrated at the Special Merit Awards ceremony during Grammy Week in Los Angeles. The Lifetime Achievement Award is reserved for performers whose creative output has demonstrated exceptional artistic importance within the recording industry.
Fela, who passed away in 1997, is globally recognised as the architect of Afrobeat, a genre that fused traditional African rhythms with jazz, funk, and highlife. Beyond its musical innovation, his work became a powerful vehicle for political and social expression, openly confronting authority, exposing corruption, and amplifying the voices of everyday people in Nigeria and across the African continent.
Although his influence reached far beyond Africa, Fela never won a Grammy while he was alive. This posthumous honour is widely regarded as a significant milestone for African music and a long-awaited recognition of his profound impact on global culture and sound.
The award will be accepted on his behalf by members of his family. His sons, Femi and Seun Kuti, have continued to uphold and advance the Afrobeat legacy through their music and regular performances at the New Afrika Shrine in Lagos.
With this recognition, Fela joins a distinguished group of internationally revered music icons honoured for their lifetime contributions to recorded music. The award also follows the recent induction of his 1976 album, Zombie, into the Grammy Hall of Fame, further underscoring his enduring influence.
Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’s recognition by the Recording Academy is being hailed as a landmark moment for Nigerian music, Afrobeat, and Africa’s expanding cultural presence on the global stage.
