Actress Ngozi Ezeonu Debunks Death Rumour

She wrote: “I lost a very close friend of mine, I posted a candle, a half-burnt candle and they now put my picture on that candle and everybody is saying that I died.

“It is wrong. I am alive and healthy, please.

“In journalism, what you do when in doubt is you leave out. If you cannot get across to the person to at least confirm the story, you don’t post.

“Don’t do that, please. Don’t try it again. This is a new year, why would anybody want to hurt each other just because they want people to follow them?”

“The calls I have been receiving have been very worrisome. I don’t know why anybody should take my post.” She added

Ngozi Ezeonu is a Nigerian actress and former journalist notable for her portrayal of archetypal mothers in Nollywood movies. In 2012, she starred in Adesuwa, a role that earned her the Best Supporting Actress nomination at the 8th Africa Movie Academy Awards.
