Popular broadcaster, and host of ‘The Morning Show’ on Classic FM, Lagos, Dan Foster, is dead.

He was said to have been ill and many reports are speculating that his death is coronavirus related.

Foster worked with numerous radio stations including Cathy Hughes Radio One, Mix 106.5 both in America, and Virgin Island-based WTBN before moving to Nigeria in 2000 where he joined Cool FM, quickly becoming popular with Nigerian listeners.

In September 2009, Foster left Cool FM for Inspiration FM but left in 2014 to join City FM.

In May 2016, he left City FM 105.1 for Classic FM 97.3 radio station where he worked before he passed on.

In 2007, Foster was a judge on the Idols West Africa series, alongside Nigerian Dede Mabiaku and Ghanaian Abrewa Nana. He was also a judge on Nigeria’s Got Talent alongside actress Kate Henshaw and comedian Yibo Koko.

Foster had a son, Joshua, from his previous marriage. He was married to a Nigerian, Lovina, and had three children – Kayla, Daniella and Somtochukwu.

Fans and friends have taken to social media to mourn the departed.

*Kate Henshaw @HenshawKate – “I wondered why he was trending… I thought it’s the usual Twitter dragging… oh lord.This grim reaper year should just come and be going…My fellow judge on Nigeria’s Got Talent. Rest in Peace, the Bug Dawg”.

*Ben Murray-Bruce @benmurraybruce – “The death of Dan Foster saddens me. He was an excellent friend of mine and a veteran radio host bar none. May his soul rest in peace”.

*JJ. Omojuwa @Omojuwa – “Dan Foster’s voice was a huge part of my growing up. His voice on Cool FM. His playfulness. His kindness. Long before I saw what he looked like, his voice communicated his personality in a way no picture needed to. This one is one loss too many. This is a really sad day”.

*DJ Neptune #NoBody @deejayneptune – “Rest well Dan Foster. You gave us dope vibes via our 📻 set. May God be with your family”.

*Folarin Oloyede @folay09 – “Good Night Dan Foster. You were unique. You did Radio like no one. God uphold your family and loved ones”.

*NET @theNETng – 2020 has taken so much already and now the radio legend is gone. Your rich, sonorous voice started the day and gave us hope. Rest easy knowing what you’ve done and the legacy you created, will live on forever.
Rest in Peace Dan Foster”.
