Popular actress cum filmmaker, Chioma Grace Ifemeludike is very angry with her colleagues in the movie industry and has taken them to the cleaners.
For those who don’t know, her anger is coming from her colleague’s failure to recognised the demise of veteran actor, Pa Benjamin Nwani Okolo who passed away on February 21st, 2021.
The actress is very bitter with the Nigerian movie practitioners for not honouring the deceased despite his contribution to the film industry.
She expressed her dissatisfaction via her Instagram page on Sunday, February 28th, 2021.
She wrote; “How old veterans die without acknowledgement or recognition from Nollywood is really shocking, like these men were part of us, we shared memories with these elders but once they get sick and die they’re barely remembered or celebrated especially if they were not very popular… is this not hypocrisy???”
“Pa Benjamin Nwani Okolo, was a renowned Nollywood (elder) actor, died 21 Feb. 2021. (As seen on Facebook).”
“Until his death he was once a director at UNTH Enugu, and a very talented actor. Nollywood we can do better!!! RIP sir. May God grant his family the fortitude to bare such a loss.”
