“It is with profound grief that on behalf of Wild FM family and the family of Boy Negro, we are confirming that one of our staff, Eric ‘Boy Negro’ Gevero died this morning, October 11, 2021, due to heart attack at the age of 46,” the statement read.

“No words can express how broken our hearts are and accepting the reality that he is already gone.”

It continued: “We would like to thank the RTA officer who immediately attended to Boy when he collapsed from his motorcycle while waiting for the green traffic signal, and the taxi driver Ragner Agus who brought him to the hospital.”

“Mission accomplished Boy, as the ‘Sadsad King.’ We will always remember your favourite line on your primetime morning program ‘Kape-kape, Kape-kape…’ As what you always say on your program extro, ‘God is good all the time, and that all the time God is good.’ Rest in peace, Ka Wild. We love you and we will be missing you.”



The statement ended, “‘Sadsad King’ is officially signing off!”

The bereaved family also asked those who posted and shared the unconscious photos of Gevero to be taken down, as well as thanked the people who helped and rushed the late DJ to the hospital.
