Born on May 30, 1971, Sammie Okposo was an international Nigerian gospel artist. He was also a music producer, Psalmist, and CEO of Zamar Entertainment. He released his first album Addicted in 2004.

He was the CEO of Zamar Entertainment and collaborated with many gospel artists. His most recent album, The Statement was produced by a Grammy Award winner, Kevin Bond.

However, Okposo has not been fully active on social media since his controversy in early 2022 after he admitted he was involved in an extramarital affair.

He apologized to his wife, Ozioma, on his Instagram page on January 24, 2022, for his infidelity after a lady known only as African Doll, accused him of impregnating her and abandoning her.

The gospel musician told his fans that he would focus on restoration and seek forgiveness.
