Nollywood in Mourning Following Death of Beloved Actress

The unexpected passing of actress Pat Ugwu has caused the Nollywood industry to enter a new phase of grieving.
According to reports, renowned actor Emeka Okoye announced the actress’s death on Wednesday on his Instagram account. She was 35 years old.
In addition to expressing grief that he would not be able to collaborate with Ugwu once more, Okoye prayed for his fellow coworkers’ safety and long lives.

“Rest in peace, sis,” Emeka wrote after she announced her passing. Ugwu Pat. @patpat_ugwu We don’t get to work again, then? Why the devil? God willing 😭😭😭. PAT, rest in peace. May you find peace in the Lord’s arms. Protect all of my coworkers, especially the ones I’m close to, please, God. This strange death is terrifying. This year, in 2025, I declare life to everyone near me in the priceless blood of Jesus. “Amen.”

Based on the funeral plans made public by her family, the late actress will be laid to rest on February 6 and 7, 2025.

Moses Korede Are, a Nigerian gospel actor who starred in the Mount Zion Abattoir series and was also known as Baba Gbenro, has been buried.
