Veteran Nollywood Actress Pass On



 Nollywood is Nigeria film industry biggest in Africa, arguably  top 10 in the world.  

These are men and women who are doing great in their own right and in eyes of the society, but in recent time some have been facing life issues, such as their health seems to be the matter. 


We wake up Wednesday morning to another sad news of one of the veteran  actress Madam Cynthia Okereke  pass on, Tuesday 11th July 2023.

The news was broken on Twitter by one of her colleagues @Okechukwu Joseph and it read 

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. #CynthiaOkereke
