Popular Nollywood actress Cynthia Okereke has reportedly died.
The news of her death was revealed by the late actress’s colleague, Joseph Okechukwu, on his verified social media page on Wednesday, July 12th.
According to the filmmaker, he was about to pay for Cynthia Okereke’s flight ticket to come to America but sadly, she died on Tuesday night.
Sharing her photo on his verified social media page, Joseph wrote: “REST IN PEACE, Nwanyi oma. I’m shattered beyond words. The fact that I was about to pay for your flight ticket to come finish what we started only to here you went to be with Lord just last night is one of the toughest things I’ve ever had to deal with in recent times. I pray I’m able to recover from this shock. Life is really just a mist. One minute you have it, the next you don’t.
For the more than 20 years that I’ve known you, you’ve been such an amazing, decent and lovely soul to be around. I never imagined you’d exit so unceremoniously. Words fail me
Sleep on, Cynthia. May your gentle soul rest on till we meet again in glory,” he wrote.
Recall that on Friday, July 29, 2022, the late actress and Clemson Cornel were abducted while traveling to and from a filming location in Ozalla, Enugu State.
The announcement was made by actor Monalisa Chinda, who also serves as the Director of Communications for the Actors Guild of Nigeria.
She said that after the actors’ families verified that they hadn’t returned from the shoot, the actors were listed as missing.
They were eventually freed, though, after a few days with the underworld’s men.
