One of her colleagues, Skales could not hide his sorrow as he declared: “I still don’t understand why such things happen to good people. She was too good to me. I am grateful for all she did for me. God knows best. May her soul rest in peace.”

Timaya described Kefee as a “friend, a sister, a colleague and a strong woman, “ adding “ Working with her on that “Kokoroko” song was a blessing. We will miss her so much.”

Lami Philips said, “I don’t understand why this has to happen. May God keep grant her eternal rest, and comfort those she left behind.”

K-Solo expressed his grief thus; Kefee was a wonderful singer. I produced her Kokoroko song. I will miss her so much. Whenever she sings, the vocal just drops and she can’t even phantom how great her voice dexterity was. I can’t hold back these tears. I used to call her Irekef.”

According to Sunny Nneji, her death is painful. “This is a huge loss in the music industry. For a young and vibrant artiste like Kefee to die just like that is really painful. In fact, I am still in a shock.”

For African China, “Honestly, it’s a sad one because she was more than a friend to me. I could remember the last time I visited her restaurant located in Maryland, Lagos, to eat starch and banga soup. After having a good meal, I posed for shots with her. I was surprised to hear that she is dead. We even talked about doing collaboration soon. It’s really sad because I had a mission yet to be accomplished with her.”

In his own reaction, Alariwo of Africa said, “It’s really shocking, disappointing and devastating.

When I heard about Kefee’s death this morning (yesterday), I was in a shock for about four hours. This is because it is a big blow to the industry for a lively and vibrant singer like Kefee to be lost to death.”

Also, reacting to Kefee’s death via Instagram, Sasha P said, “Now you are looking at heaven…..Teach us Lord to number our days. Rest In Peace Kefee, God knows best.”
