Reggae-dancehall singer and songwriter, Patoranking, lost one of his crew members after an Afro Nation performance in Portugal.
Bright Nicholas, a member of Patoranking’s band, died yesterday, June 5, 2022.
Bright and the crew performed alongside Patoranking-born, Patrick Okorie at the Afro Nation Portugal 2022. The event took place at the Praia da Rocha beach, Portimão, Algarve from July 1 to 3.
The deceased was in his early 30’s and played keyboard at Harvesters International Christian Centre, Gbagada, Lagos.
A source said he joined Patoranking’s band some years ago and has been traveling with him within and outside the country.
“We heard that he vomited blood before he died, though this is still unconfirmed. We were also told that an autopsy will be carried out. Persons who knew him are in a mourning mood, he was a very talented instrumentalist. It’s sad news” a source said
