Actress Ijeoma Okorie Dies At Child Birth

The year 2014 is starting on another bleak note for the Nigerian movie industry, called Nollywood, as the make believe world has lost three stars in quick succession.

Few days after two actors, Charles Warren, from the English speaking sector and Shehu Jibril, who is popularly known as Golobo, from the Hausa sector of the industry, died in mysterious circumstances, another budding actress, Ijeoma Okorie, has died during child birth.

The lady who is said to be a very strong and dedicated member of the Port Harcourt, Rivers State chapter of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria, reportedly died due to complications arising when she was about to be delivered of twin babies who also died with their mother.

May her soul rest in peace as we all pray for the movie industry in Nigeria.
