Deceased Nigerian singer and songwriter Osinachi Nwachukwu will forever remain in the hearts and minds of her people.

Most of her listeners were from the eastern area of Nigeria, where she sang Igbo songs for them.

Additionally, she was a minister of the gospel and a producer of Christian worship music. Prospa Ochimana's popular song "Ekwueme" in 2017 catapulted her into the limelight.

Osinachi was born on November 12, 1979, in Owerri, Nigeria. She died aged 42 but many of her fans praise her saying she defended her faith well on earth and was happy with the heavenly choir.

Here are her top songs.

Ekwueme ft Osinachi Nwachukwu

As much as Prospa Ochimana featured Osinachi in this song, she made a good deal out of it. It cast her in a new light in 207 after its release.

"Ekwueme" means "A God who says it and does it," and this huge sound pierces through the heavens and brings the spirit of man to his presence.

"EKWUEME" was sung in both English and Igbo – the dominant language in Eastern Nigerian - where she hails from.

The song is pure, powerful, and meditative with a slow tempo which is still a big tune in Nigeria even now.

The Cry

Jesus The Lord

Osinachi redefined worship with this tune and many of her fans attest to it.  Many felt that God was using her to preach the gospel in a special way.

Lord You Reign ft Apostle Israel Iyiri Oku Dika Uwe

‘A miracle, in the Bible sense of the word, is an extraordinary work of God transcending the ordinary powers of nature, wrought in connection with the ends of revelation i.e., wrought in order to reveal God to man and to achieve the purposes of God.' So this song is about the miracle-working wonders of God,” Osinach described her song.
