The Nigerian Movie industry was once again plunged into sadness, following the discovery on social media on Tuesday of the passing of another veteran Nollywood actor, Zulu Adigwe.
Movie producer Stanley Nwoko revealed Adigwe’s passing via a post on his Instagram page.
Nwoko remarked, “Rest in peace, good actor,” in mourning for the actor.
Two weeks have passed after Junior Pope and three other Nollywood actors died in a boat accident in Anam River, which is when Adigwe passed away.
When the incident happened, it was reported that the actors were in route to a location.
Adigwe became well-known for his roles as paternal figures in Nollywood movies.
His breakout performance was in the hit sitcom “Basi and Company” as Mr. B.
Additionally, he starred in the hugely popular 2019 film “Living in Bondage: Breaking Free.”
Despite having been born and raised in Enugu State, he eventually relocated to Austria to finish his elementary and secondary schooling.
