Steven Fiawoo, widely known across the continent as Praye Tietia, arrived at the private mourning quarters accompanied by his wife, Selly Galley, and a tight circle of close associates.

Having shared recording booths, global concert stages, and profound personal milestones with Choirmaster for over two decades, the sheer weight of the tragedy broke his composure instantly.

During a brief, solemn interaction with journalists on the compound, the usually vibrant performer was completely unrecognisable. Shaking visibly and pausing repeatedly to wipe away free-flowing tears, Praye Tietia struggled to hold himself together.

"Beverly wasn't just a wife to my brother; she has been an absolute core part of our entire family structure long before she even officially got married to Choirmaster," the musician shared in a trembling voice.
"Her passing is an incredibly massive, irreplaceable loss that has completely shattered us into pieces. It doesn't make sense."
