Ikesima Brown, Nigerian singer popularly known as Niger Delta Queen of Highlife Music, has died in a ghastly motor accident.

Ikesima reportedly died alongside six other band members of Ijaw music legend, Chief Barrister Smooth, after their bus rammed into a petrol tanker in Abuja/Lokoja highway and Kwale community in Delta State.

The auto crash occurred on Sunday, June 11, while the band members were heading from Warri to Abuja for a show.

According to reports, the ill-fated vehicle conveying the popular band was engaged by a state government to play at the swearing-in reception of National Assembly members in Abuja on Tuesday.

An eyewitness who narrated the ghastly accident said the band members boarded a train from Warri to Kogi and were on their way to Abuja when the Toyota Siena car in which they were travelling had a collision with a fuel tanker, killing them at the accident spot.
