The Nigerian gospel music industry has began to mourn the death of one of their own, Morenikeji Adeleke.

The death of the singer was announced by fellow gospel singer, Esther Igbekele on Instagram. According to Esther Igbekele, she was distraught and shocked at the news of the death of the singer, who she still had a conversation with recently before her sudden death.

She said;
“Egbin Orun departed suddenly without bidding farewell.”

“I got home from my program to hear about this great loss. Prophetess Morenikeji Egbin Orun you left without saying goodbye..

We spoke together last week not knowing you are about to embark on a journey to the great beyond. You are such a beautiful and kind-hearted woman and a very good supporter of my ministry.

“I am deeply saddened by your demise but God knows best. You will be greatly missed and your good deeds will continue to linger in our hearts.

“Ah Egbin Orun. Good night! Keep resting in the bosom of Christ. Ah Gone too soon..Yeeee.”
