Late Dagrin, born Olayitan Olanipekun Oladapo, died in a ghastly car accident when his car ran into a stationary truck around 3am at Mushin in Lagos state back in April 2010.
He was rescued by policemen on patrol who called his manager after finding his number on Dagrin’s last dialed list.
The late hip-hop star was rushed to Tai Solarin private hospital in Mushin before he was moved to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH).
He died days later at LUTH from complications arising from injuries he sustained.
What a loss!
May His soul rest in a serene cottage
