Abubakar Yakubu, the National Secretary of the Nigerian Actor’s Guild, has confirmed the death of one of Nigeria’s seasoned actors, Zulu Adigwe.
He confirmed this news during a telephone interview with Premium Times, which was monitored by 1Family Radio.
Abubakar, however, noted that the guild is waiting for more details about the death of Zulu and the burial arrangements.
Zulu Adigwe allegedly passed away on Tuesday, April 23, 2024, according to an Instagram post by Stanley Nwoko, a Nigerian movie producer.
“I regret to announce the passing of a veteran actor, the late Zulu Adigwe. What caused his death has yet to be reviewed. Rest in peace, good actor,’’ his post read.
The multifaceted legend played a major role in a lot of movies, such as “Isakaba,“ “Breaking Free, “Living in Bondage,” and ‘’Blood Diamond.’’
Since the start of the year, the Nigerian movie industry has lost six of its talented actors, including Mr. Ibu, Adejumoke Aderounmu, Sisi Quadri, Amaechi Muonagor, Andy Best, and Junior Pope.
