Nollywood actor, film producer and director, Obinna Nwafor, better known as Saint Obi is dead.
Reports say the popular Nigerian actor passed on at the age of 57 after a protracted illness.
It was reported that he died early in the week after battling an undisclosed illness for several months with no successful treatment.
The Actors Guild of Nigeria is yet to make a statement as the family reportedly have a little disagreement hence the delay to make a formal announcement.
The movie star came into prominence in his role in Zeb Eiro’s ‘Sakobi’ and was featured in over 100 movies.
He is also well known for his roles in Candle Light, Goodbye Tomorrow, Heart of Gold, among others.
The news of his death is coming hours after another actor, Adedigba Mukail known by his stage name Alafin Oro passed away.
Alafin Oro’s demise was announced in the early hours of Saturday morning by fellow actor, Kunle Afod.
