Gospel singer Dele Agbeyo, popularly known as Dele Gold, has passed away.
The self-proclaimed “Miliki Gospel King,” Dele Gold hailed from Usi, Ekiti State, but grew up in Faforiji, Osun State.
He reportedly died on Wednesday, 11 September, 2024, after a brief illness.
His death has been confirmed by several of his colleagues, including Titi Oguntoyinbo, Akinlabi Major, Alayo Melody Singer, and Wonder Doyin Kujore, who expressed their shock and sorrow on social media.
In 2019, he featured Ebenezer Obey, the Juju music legend, on his album.
Dele turned a year older in April, and expressed gratitude for what he described as “rare blessings and favour”.
His death comes just a month after Aduke Ajayi, another gospel singer better known as Aduke Gold, passed away from cervical cancer.
She was laid to rest in Lagos on August 23.
