Gospel Singer Dennis Mwangi also known as Papa Dennis has been found dead in Pangani under unclear circumstances.

His lifeless body was found near the Jubilee Party Headquarters in the wee hours of Saturday morning.

Witnesses say that the singer fell from the 7th floor of an unnamed building after a studio session although the circumstances around the tragic tumble are unclear.

However, police officers probing the matters told a local publication they suspect suicide.

Youtuber and comedian Terence Creative posted news of the death on social media captioning a photo of the singer: “Rest in peace, Papa Dennis. May God protect us, artists. Something must be addressed”

Musician Daddy Owen who previously did a number with the deceased says he went to the scene after the news broke and found Papa Dennis’s body on the ground.

Papa Dennis who has bagged several awards among them the coveted Afrimma award was thrust into limelight when he was taken into the ‘Maliza Umaskini’ stable by flashy businessman-cum-politician Sadat Muhindi.
