The Nigerian gospel music industry has been thrown into mourning following the death of popular gospel artiste, Taiwo Adegbodu, one half of the renowned Adegbodu Twins.

News of his passing surfaced on Sunday after his twin brother and music partner, Kehinde Adegbodu, took to social media to announce the heartbreaking news.

In an emotional post, Kehinde expressed deep grief over the loss of his brother and ministry partner.

“TAIWO, why will you leave me and your kids without notification?
My heart is bleeding, Lord how do you want me to cope without him?
God why? This is too much for me to bear!!!”

Taiwo and Kehinde Adegbodu were widely known in gospel circles for their powerful ministrations, energetic worship sessions and twin-stage performances that endeared them to churches and Christian gatherings across Nigeria.

Their songs and live ministrations had earned them a loyal following among worshippers, particularly in the South-West.

Details surrounding the cause of death and funeral arrangements have not yet been made public as at the time of filing this report.
