Nollywood actors and fans have taken to social media to express their grief over the comedian’s untimely death.
Sharing heartbreak, Actress Funmi Awelewa wrote. “The pain, the effort, the strength, the struggle… walai nothing make sense. I’m heartbroken. Even film sef never come out! It does not make sense.”
