Nigeria: TikTok creator dies during live stream after epileptic seizure
A TikTok content creator known as “Disturbing” has died after suffering an epileptic seizure while live streaming from his home in Ikorodu, Lagos State, Nigeria.
The tragic incident occurred on Thursday and quickly went viral, with footage capturing the artist’s final moments as he appeared visibly distressed before collapsing.
Disturbing, who was also a cobbler and musician, had gained additional recognition for his active involvement in the “Justice for Mohbad” movement.
In a message posted on TikTok, his wife, Omowunmi, revealed that he had struck his head on a stone during the fall. She explained that she was in the kitchen when alerted by neighbors.
“Yesterday morning, my husband was live on TikTok while I was preparing his meal. Suddenly, he had a seizure, fell, and hit his head on a stone. Blood was coming from his head. A young boy and some neighbors saw him, thought he had fainted, and poured water on him. They called me from the kitchen,” she recounted.
She added that he was rushed to the hospital, where doctors placed him on oxygen. Unfortunately, he passed away on Friday morning.
