His de@th was announced in a Facebook post on Monday by Awuzie Frankline, a blogger and content creator, who also posted a video of Nwobu lying lifeless.
Although Frankline did not state the circumstances surrounding Nwobu’s alleged de@th, it was learned the post that the actor reportedly d!ed some hours after clubbing in South Africa over the weekend.
In a series of posts on Facebook, he wrote: “God Why ! ODIRA why leave us… The Call I received now was not a good one. #Odiegwu.”
In another post, Frankline wrote: “You were full of life even some hours ago in South Africa, and you even had your thanksgiving service just a few months ago. Many people came to celebrate with you.
"How can you return from South Africa lifeless? Honestly, I am drowning in tears. De@th is Rude. I am heartbroken.”
Nigerian actor, Stanley Ontop also confirmed the stort on Instagram.
He wrote: "Sad News: 💔🤦♂️

Another comedian, Evan Okoro, also posted a picture of Nwobu on her Facebook page saying, “How no I can’t believe this nooooo”.

Meanwhile, there hasn’t been any official statement by Nwobu’s family at the time of filing this report regarding his de@th.
