The Nigerian movie industry is in mourning following the death of actress Omotola Odunsi.
The death of Omotola was confirmed by her colleague, Akinola Akano, fondly known as Segbowe.
Segbowe posted an emotional tribute on his Instagram page.
He posted screenshots of his last chat with Omotola, where she told him she was feeling better after being sick.
“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,” wrote Segbowe.
Ace actor Odunlade Adekola, under whom Omotola was mentored, also reacted to her death, posting: “Jesus Christ. RIP Omotola.”
She featured in many Yoruba films, including Lisabi: The Uprising, Officer Adaeze, Amonata, Ayanmo Ire, and Ifedayo.
