Popular Nollywood Actress, Cynthia Okereke has sadly passed on to the great beyond.

The heartbreaking development was revealed by her colleague in the entertainment industry, Joseph Okechukwu.

The veteran movie star died exactly one year after enduring a traumatic kidnapping experience.

Joseph, a filmmaker, expressed his deep sorrow, revealing that he had intended to pay for Cynthia Okereke’s flight ticket to America to continue their joint project. However, fate intervened, and she tragically passed away on Tuesday night.

“May you rest in peace, dear Nwanyi oma. I am utterly devastated and at a loss for words. The fact that I was on the verge of finalizing your travel arrangements to complete what we had begun, only to learn that you departed this world last night, is one of the most difficult things I have ever had to grapple with recently.

I pray that I will be able to recover from this profound shock. Life truly is fleeting. One moment you have it, the next it slips away”. He wrote.
