Prominent Tigrayan musician Dawit Nega passed away Sunday at the age of 34 after being admitted to a hospital in Addis Ababa just a few days earlier.
The popular singer had been admitted to Addis Hiwot Hospital in Ethiopia’s capital city after suffering from flu-like symptoms. According to the BBC, Dawit Nega leaves behind a wife and a son with his passing.
While Dawit Nega had released numerous songs, his most recent song entitled “Ajoki Tigray” pays tribute to the families of Tigray that have been separated or had their lives turned upside down by the ongoing war across the region.
