Goldie Died Of Drugs- According to sources close to the singer

As the cause of her death is yet to be confirmed, but reports online claims that Goldie may have died from a potentially life-threatening condition due to a blockage in a blood vessel in the lungs. A pulmonary embolism (PE) can cause symptoms such as chest pain or breathlessness but may have no symptoms and be hard to detect. A massive pulmonary embolism can cause collapse and death. PE usually happens due to an underlying blood clot in the leg - deep vein thrombosis. Prompt treatment is important and can be life-saving.

Nigeria’s music diva, Susan Oluwabimpe Harvey, popularly known as Goldie, who died Thursday night may have died as a result of doping complications, close sources to her said.

She died on thursday night at Reddington Hospital, Victoria Island, Lagos, and barely few hours after she arrived from Los Angeles, United States of America where she attended the Grammy Awards.

Goldie’s death was confirmed yesterday by her management via her Facebook Page and Twitter handle. The post reads: “It is with heavy heart that I have to announce to you all that Goldie passed on this night (last night) shortly after arriving Lagos from Los Angeles. May her soul rest in the eternal peace of the Lord… Amin.”

The main cause of her death is still sketchy as at time of filing this report. Goldie was said to have been rushed to Reddington Hospital by close friend, Denrele Edun from her Park View residence after she complained of headache.

But a source close to the music star confided in my source that Goldie died of complications from the use of drugs. “She had complications from the use of dope. I guess things went wrong this time around.”

According to my source, “she had been into this drug stuff for some time now. I believe that contributed to her death.” Goldie, who represented Nigeria at last year’s Big Brother Amplified (BBA) in South Africa, is signed to Kennis Music.

 Kennis Music,also confirmed the death of the songstress in a statement yesterday morning. “On behalf of Kennis Music, I’m sad to officially confirm the shocking and untimely passage of Nigeria’s pop star, Goldie Harvey.
