Tragic Loss: Nigerian TikTok Creator 'Disturbing' Passes Away During Live Stream

A tragic incident occurred recently involving a Nigerian TikTok content creator known as "Disturbing," who reportedly passed away during a live stream. The event, which has circulated widely on social media, shows the influencer experiencing what appears to be a seizure before collapsing on camera. This incident was confirmed by investigative journalist Temilola Sobola, who shared the footage and noted that Disturbing was actively involved in the "Justice for Mohbad" movement.

 

Disturbing had gained prominence on TikTok for his vocal support of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad and his family. During his live broadcast, he was seen expressing anger towards individuals associated with Mohbad's case, including the singer's mother, widow, brother Adura, and a person named Liam. Some viewers speculated that his sudden death might be linked to substance abuse, while others suggested it could be due to a medical condition such as a stroke.

 

This unfortunate event underscores the importance of mental health awareness and the need for support systems for content creators. If you or someone you know is struggling, it's crucial to seek help. In Nigeria, organizations like the Mentally Aware Nigeria Initiative (MANI) offer support and resources for mental health challenges.​
