The family of veteran gospel singer, Sammie Okposo, has released his obituary.
According to the funeral arrangements, the singer who died in his sleep on November 25, will be buried on December 15. He was 51 years old.
Sammie Okposo started his music career as a soundtrack producer for Nollywood in 1992. He was well-known at that time in the small circle of Nollywood actors and producers.
He later began to get more career flashpoints when he started the Sammie Okposo Praise Party, a platform that brought many up-and-coming Nigerian gospel artistes into the scene.
The Niger Delta-born music star was known for emboldening the gospel music scene by taking his music away from the quiet confines of the church.
He released his first album Unconditional Love in 2000.
May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
