RITA EDOCHIE MOURNS DEATH OF VETERAN ACTOR MR. IBU

Actress Rita Edochie has expressed her grief over the death of actor Mr. Ibu, emphasizing the significant loss he represents for both the entertainment industry and Nigeria as a whole.

Taking to her Instagram platform, Edochie shares her deep sorrow upon learning of the veteran actor’s demise, reflecting on the pain he endured before departing.

Edochie acknowledges the inevitability of death and finds solace in the belief that Mr. Ibu is now at peace, free from the suffering of illness.

She pays tribute to her friend and colleague, honouring his memory and the legacy he leaves behind in Nollywood.

Edochie extends her prayers to Mr. Ibu’s family, hoping they find strength in this difficult time.

She said: “What hurts me most is not even your demise, it’s knowing the fact that you suffered so much and groaned painfully in the grips of paleness.

“The last time I went to see you at Evercare hospital in Lagos, we discussed to a certain extent and I was very excited that full recuperation was taking place.

“I think this is the time the heavens want to welcome your soul and relieve you of all the stress and burden sickness imposed on you at least now you can rest and the illness too can rest.

“In as much as I know that this right here is very excruciating, we still do not have the right to question the giver of life. Death is really inevitable, it’s a call everyone would answer everything in life is transient.

“May your peaceful and ever-living soul rest in power my great friend, brother, and colleague. Nollywood will miss you dearly. All I beg god for is that he gives the family you left behind the fortitude to bear this loss, Amen.”
