Singer Nazizi mourns tragic loss of son, Jazeel Adam, during holiday


Reggae and dancehall artist Nazizi is grappling with the devastating loss of her three-year-old son, Jazeel Adam, who passed away on December 25.

The tragic incident occurred at a hotel where the family was staying, as revealed in a statement posted online by fellow musician Wyre.

The statement expressed profound sorrow and deepest heartache over the untimely death of Jazeel, emphasizing the innocence and joy that the young soul brought to the lives of those around him.

“He was buried earlier today in Nairobi, in accordance with his religion,” the statement confirmed.

In the wake of this profound loss, Nazizi is urging the media, fans, and the public to honour the sanctity of family and the preciousness of life.

She appealed for a period of privacy and respect to navigate through the indescribable sorrow that had befallen her and her family.

“The void left by the loss is both immeasurable, and the pain is unbearable,” the statement conveyed, highlighting the profound impact of losing a child.

The family’s plea for compassion and understanding during this period of mourning is coupled with a request for privacy.

Nazizi and her family are asking for space to begin the healing process, and a more detailed statement will be provided once they have had time to mourn their tremendous loss.

“We deeply appreciate your prayers and thoughts for Nazizi and her family during this incredibly difficult time,” the statement continued.

The public is reminded to refrain from contacting the family directly, respecting their need for privacy as they navigate the challenging journey of grief.

Nazizi was in Tanzania to perform, which she did on December 24, according to a banner she shared on her social media accounts.

Jazeel Adam’s passing has left a void that words cannot capture, and the music community and fans join in mourning this young soul’s loss.

May his soul rest in peace!
