The National Hospital Abuja on Monday dismissed claims that the corpse of popular gospel singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu was singing ‘Ekwueme’ while in the mortuary.

Dr Tayo Haastrup, the spokesman of National Hospital, said there was no proof that Osinachi’s body was singing in the morgue.

Osinachi, a chorister in Dunamis International Gospel Center, died a few months ago allegedly due to domestic violence she suffered from her husband, Peter Nwachukwu.

Following her demise, her corpse was deposited in the National Hospital mortuary. Reports had it that mortuary attendants alleged that Osinachi’s corpse was singing her hit track, Ekwueme, in the middle of the night.

Reacting to the report, Haastrup said: “Medically, there is nothing like that. It’s just an imagination of people, somebody that is dead and is a corpse, how would such a person be singing in the night?

Somebody that is dead is dead and has become a corpse; it’s inside a morgue, it can’t sing and can’t move so it’s an imagination of people.”

On the autopsy report, he said: “It’s a corona case, and it’s confidential; we can’t reveal anything there. The IPO in charge will give it to the IGP, who will turn it to the court.

The result has been submitted all the same, and our people did it confidentially.
