Oh dear! This is really sad. One of Nigeria’s most distinguished
producer and director, Amaka Igwe, is dead. She passed on at the age of
51. She reportedly suffered an asthmatic attack, and died while being
taken to the hospital.
Amaka Igwe was in Enugu for the pre-production of an Igbo series when
the unfortunate incident occurred. I heard the President of Actor’s
Guild of Nigeria, Ibinabo Fiberesima, has also confirmed the news.
She is survived by 3 children, husband of 21 years and her mother.
For those who do not know much about her, this woman is the creator of
one of the best TV shows in Nigeria of all time: Fuji’s House of
Commotion.
May her gentle soul rest in Peace. Amen!
