The music community in Abuja is in mourning following the tragic passing of singer Nanyah, but the grief is quickly being overshadowed by a heated public dispute. Nanyah reportedly lost her life after a snake bite, a freak accident that has now spiraled into a legal and ethical battle over medical accountability.
Her family has come forward with devastating allegations against the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) Jabi, claiming that the singer’s death was entirely preventable. According to the family, the hospital displayed gross negligence by failing to administer life-saving anti-venom when she arrived. The outcry has sparked a massive debate online regarding the state of emergency care and the availability of essential treatments in Nigerian hospitals.
However, the FMC officially broke its silence today, flatly denying all claims of negligence. In a formal statement, the hospital management defended their protocols, asserting that they provided the necessary care within their capacity. This conflicting narrative has left fans and activists demanding a more transparent investigation into what really happened in those final hours. As the industry loses a rising talent, the quest for justice for Nanyah is just beginning
