The African Music and Entertainment Industry have been put into a sad moment as The Executive Producer and President of All Africa Music Awards, AFRIMA, Mr Mike Dada, has lost his beloved wife, Mrs Modupe Temitope Dada, to the cold hands of death.

Dupe Dada, Nee Baruwa, born on May 5, 1976, in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria, died peacefully on Saturday, October 19, 2024, surrounded by family members, at Duchess Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos State, Nigeria after a brief illness.

In a statement on Monday by AFRIMA International Secretariat, Mr. Dada, who is also the Managing Director, PRM Africa Marketing and Communications, said his late wife was a believer in family values, community service, inclusivity and had the gift of compassion, and love for God and Africa.

According to him, “It is with immeasurable grief that we, the Dada family, confirm the passing of our wife and sister, Modupe Temitope Dada aka Dupsy, Mama Africa, on Saturday, October 19, 2024, at Dutchess International Hospital, Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria. A true and loving wife and mother indeed. She lived all her life in the banking and entertainment industry and brought to us the affection and compassion that we have come to love so much.

The family submits to the will of the Almighty God and asks for the prayers and support of kind-hearted individuals during this difficult time.

“She was a loving wife, mother and friend, who always put family and Africa first. Her passing has left a void that will be impossible to fill.”

According to the burial arrangements announced by the family, a Service of Songs will be held by 5.00 pm (WAT) on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, at Grace Assembly, Yard 158, Kudirat Abiola Way, Oregun-Ikeja, Lagos State, Nigeria. Farewell service holds Thursday, October 24, 2024, at 10.00 am (WAT) at the same venue. Private Interment follows immediately.

You are enjoined to join the farewell service live streaming on AFRIMA channels.

The deceased, Vice-President of AFRIMA, and an accomplished bank executive, is survived by several relatives including her husband, Mr Dada, two children and siblings.

Her African friends and fans will remember her for her limitless love, selflessness and compassion.

AFRIMA appreciates all the condolences and love that are pouring in from all ends of the world.
