The chairman of the Abuja chapter of Actors Guild of Nigeria, Mr Frank White confirmed the death yesterday and below is what he said:

      He is very much alive. Last month he was so quiet when he attended the burial of Pete Eneh.

    Dear Editor,I believe we could now come to terms that the prophecy of death made in reference to the nolly-wood actors by the men of God are gradually coming to fulfilment.They should pray hard.

    Death is something that can not be avoided when the time come and it does not have options but one thing is sure and that is, it will be glorious if the person we are mourning here has truly gone to meet His creator. if not his suffering just started.

    my advice to all that is reading this news is that you watch your style if it is in line with the will of God and are you keeping His commandment and obeying them to the last, my friends there is no more time to delay or wast the rapture at your door post and every life and everything you do while you are alive will be accounted for, a record will played about your life and no one will stand to defend you so make sure you are not a christian by mouth and not by action and life style

    Those that live their life forgetting that they are living a borrowed life will surely give account their life to God

      Oluchi is actually sounding a trumpet and i join him to sound it that, the Lord Jesus Christ is coming very very soon, and there is no more time to waiston the parts of christians who really mean business with the Lord in spirit and in truth.

      It is like the time of Noah when he was mistaken for a drunk unril it was too late, and there was no amendment whatsoever but a fearful time of recompence and distruction.

      The world is earnestly waiting for the manifestation of the children of God. My prayer for the church of God is that God in His infinite mercy will help us to stand in the truth when Christ will come. Amen.
