Nollywood actress Omotola Odunsi has died, leaving fans and colleagues in shock.
Her death was confirmed on Thursday by fellow actor Akinola ‘Segbowe’ Akano, who took to Instagram to share his grief.
Segbowe shared screenshots of their last conversation and photos, revealing that she had recently said she was feeling better.
“Motola! Strange but I tried checking on you at the wee hours of that morning. You said you were FINE & BACK! This is a rude shock, Omotola! Journey well, sister. God be with your family,” he wrote.
The cause of her death has not been disclosed.
Veteran actor Odunlade Adekola, who mentored Omotola during her early days in acting, also confirmed the sad news on his Instagram story with a brief message: “Jesus Christ. RIP Omotola.”
Actress Ashabi Simple, who has a child with singer Portable, expressed her disbelief, recalling how she recently saw Omotola on a film set.
“I’m shocked. You’re one of the best actors I’m rooting for. I saw you earlier this year when I was shooting Deputy and we promised to feature each other in our next project. But now, you laboured and didn’t wait to reap.
“I remember nights you chatted with me to give hope and advice. Most of your wishes didn’t even come true. GOD, we can’t question you. D3ath is deep,” she wrote.
