Nigerian-American singer Zara Gretti is dead.
Zara whose real name is Margaret-Mary Joseph is known for her hit songs including “The Flyest” and “Teno”.
In the past, she was open about her battle with multiple sclerosis. The Mayo Clinic
defines Multiple sclerosis (MS) as “a potentially debilitating disease
in which your body’s immune system eats away at the protective sheath
(myelin) that covers your nerves. Damage to myelin causes interference
in the communication between your brain, spinal cord and other areas of
your body. This condition may result in deterioration of the nerves
themselves, a process that’s not reversible.”
Zara is believed to have died today. The
family isn’t releasing a statement on her death yet but her former
manager confirms the tragic news.
Over the last 2 years, Zara had
chronicled her painful MS journey via social media pages including
instagram and twitter. She recently shared that she could no longer walk
and could barely sleep. It is clear that the talented young musician
was in a lot of anguish yet she maintained a positive disposition.
Her last tweet was yesterday Thursday 27th March 2014.
