The Nollywood film Industry has been thrown into mourning following the death of another popular actor, Chikezie Uwazie, in the United States.

The veteran actor was one of the top actors in the Nigerian film industry in the 2000s before moving to the United States of America seven years ago.

One of his colleagues, Obey Etok Chima, who confirmed the devastating news, said he died after undergoing a second brain operation.

“I can’t believe I’m posting this. I can’t imagine am posting this. Chikezie Uwazie goneeeee. After a 2nd brain surgery. Gini na emezi. Am so shocked to get this news this evening. Just got this from our IMSU alumni platform. I thought you told me you were going to the States for greener pastures. You promised to come back some years back but I didn’t see you. Can’t believe you are gone but God knows best. Rest on Chyko,” she wrote.

This is coming just forty-eight (48) hours after the deaths of Nollywood actors, Murphy Afolabi and Saint Obi were made public.
