Hum­ming­bird gold medal awardee Glenn “Drag­on” de Souza has died. 

The founder of the Keyle­man­jahro School of Arts and Cul­ture passed away on Mon­day. The Trinidad and To­ba­go Car­ni­val Bands As­so­ci­a­tion ex­tend­ed its con­do­lences to the loved ones of "Drag­on" on so­cial me­dia.

The as­so­ci­a­tion com­mend­ed him for his un­wa­ver­ing ded­i­ca­tion to the preser­va­tion and cel­e­brat­ing T&T's cul­tur­al her­itage.

The TTC­BA said he has left an in­deli­ble mark on the artis­tic land­scape of this coun­try. 

In may, he was set to at­tempt to set a Guin­ness world record for the largest num­ber of moko jumbies in one spot at the Queen’s Park Sa­van­nah. He orig­i­nal­ly want­ed to set the record for car­ni­val 2025 but var­i­ous is­sues post­poned his at­tempt.
