Popular Kiss FM Abuja DJ Daniel Jibrin, popularly known as Danosaur, died on Tuesday night in hospital  
A statement released by Kiss FM Abuja confirmed the news: "We received with shock the news of the passing away of our drive time presenter, Mr Daniel Jibrin AKA Danosaur from his family last night with the utmost shock and disbelief.

“We all at 99.9 Kiss FM will surely miss Daniel in so many ways, but will most especially remember him for his disarming smile, cordiality with all staff and his very valuable and professional contribution to the station during a very critical phase of its restructuring.

Daniel had been working in radio for many years and was a presenter at Ray Power Abuja before joining Kiss FM, where he was a producer and presenter of the‘321’ evening show until his death. 

He was also a music artist and had signed a management contract with Iroko Records. The label also released a statement which said: “The news of his death is still a shocker to everyone who knew the lyrically-sound Hip-pop figure with a northern swag.   

“Danosaur went the extra mile in promoting all the songs of the other artistes on the label since he was a radio personality. He was truly more of a friend/brother than an artiste and the entire Iroko Records team will definitely miss him dearly.”

There were unconfirmed reports that he died following complications from a fire accident.
