Ifunanya’s Demise: Lady speaks about late singer’s surname ‘Nwangene’, says life is spiritual

An emotional post reflecting on the life and death of late singer Ifunanya Nwangene has continued to generate reactions and speculation on social media.

In a post, a lady identified as Amarachi E Eddy shared her thoughts on the late singer’s surname, Nwangene, focusing on its meaning and what she described as possible spiritual implications associated with names.

Lady expresses concern about her surname

She expressed concern over the background and significance of the surname, suggesting that names can carry deep histories beyond mere identification.

The lady further alleged that the singer was bitten by snakes, which she claimed were later identified as cobras, and linked the incident to what she described as the spiritual meaning attached to the name Nwangene.

Her post emphasized the belief that names may sometimes be connected to ancestral histories or deities.

Lady urges people to learn about their names

She used the situation to advise people to take personal interest in understanding the origins and meanings of their names, encouraging discussions with parents or family elders.

According to her, names can represent identity, history, and, in some beliefs, unseen burdens, making it important for individuals to seek clarity and take steps they consider necessary.

Her post read …

“Life is spiritual—whether we like it or not.

If one day you discover that your name carries a strange or heavy meaning, don’t ignore it.

Ask questions.

Ask your parents why they gave you that name.

Names are not just labels; they are identities, histories, and sometimes burdens.

Every name has a story.

No parent names a child just because.
There is always a reason—an experience, a promise, a sacrifice, or a belief behind it.

If you later find out that your name is tied to a deity, a shrine, or a spiritual covenant in your village, don’t joke with it.

Do everything necessary to address it. If appeasement is required, do it wisely.

Then take it to God and change that name intentionally.

Cover it spiritually.

I heard that “Nwangene” was actually the main name of a promising young lady who was bitten by two snakes in her room, and later those snakes turned into cobras—the name meaning “daughter of a deity.”

I’m watching this girl singing in her videos and I’m really sad for her, she doesn’t deserve this thing 🥲

Whether you believe it or not, stories like this remind us that names carry meanings deeper than pronunciation.

You may not believe in these things, but belief does not cancel reality.

A name can speak before you speak.

A name can open doors—or quietly shut them.

Know your name.

Know its meaning.

And if necessary, redefine it.

Because sometimes, changing a name is changing a story”
