The Committee for Relevant Art (CORA) has mourned the death of Freedom Park, Lagos; DJ, Bola Browne.
Browne was said to have passed away on Tuesday night after suffering a heart attack, according to eyewitness accounts.
In a statement signed by author Samuel Osaze, on behalf of CORA, the committee noted:
The Committee for Relevant Art (CORA) joins the Lagos creative community, especially the Lagos Freedom Park Family, in mourning the sudden transition of *DJ Bola Browne*, an essential figure in the cultural landscape.
Until his passing, *DJ Bola Browne* made invaluable contributions within a remarkably short span. This is clearly evidenced in the outpouring of tributes from organizations and individuals whose lives and work he touched.
As we grieve, we also remember his active roles and enduring legacies rooted in an unwavering passion for the arts. From his time as an On-Air Personality at the now-defunct iGroove Radio, later to BrownHill Radio, to his vibrant presence as a DJ on stage; often performing with or without remuneration, he brought joy, energy, and dedication to every performance.
We hold dear the many collaborations and memories we shared with him over the years. While we acknowledge the inevitability of death, we take solace in the impact he made and the lives he enriched.
May you find eternal peace, *DJ Bola Browne.* Adieu!
Signed:
Samuel Osaze
