Don Jazzy's Father's Advise to Artists & Managers Following the Sudden Death of Congolese Legend, Papa Wemba

Don Jazzy’s father, Collins Enebeli, has taken to his Facebook wall to share a word of advice to artistes and managers following the sudden death of Congolese legendary singer, Papa Wemba.

Collins Ifeanyi Owuneme Ajere Enebeli who is also the President of the Artiste Manager Association in Nigeria wrote: 

"The sad news of the death of Papa Wemba is a wake up call for artists and their managers to see reason why promoters and event organisers need the services of healthcare service providers for artists while on engagement for their events to avoid preventable fatalities as this. 

Most artists due to their busy schedules are known not to be paying enough attention to their health and listening to their bodies which may have been under pressure and stretched to breaking point without them knowing it.
