The first lady of Anambra state Ebelechukwu Obiano has sympathised with the wife of Ernest Asuzu, Jennifer and entire Asuzu family, over the sudden death of Nollywood actor.
Kemi Filani News recalls that the actor slumped and died around 9 pm on Tuesday January 26.
The first lady described the late Nollywood actor and singer as a bubbly, hardworking young man whose growth was immediately stalled by failing health.
In her words:
“I am saddened by this news. Every death is a painful experience, but the death of someone dear to us like Ernest, leaves us devastated. I recall the last time I met him in February 2020 at Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu Teaching Hospital, Amaku, Awka, where we evacuated him for treatment and how he recovered and was in good health after two weeks.
I also followed up on his progress thereafter and was glad that our effort at rehabilitating him was yielding positive result. “
“There is no doubt that the death of Ernest has created a vacuum in the family and in the Nigerian entertainment sector and has also left an abiding sense of loss among his friends and compatriots.
However, as Christians we are consoled that there is an eternity with the Father to which His mercy admits us. Therefore, as we mourn his exit, let us not forget the ideals for which he lived. May his soul rest in peace.” Mrs. Obiano surmised.
