Chief Emeka Rollas, President of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria (AGN), has refuted the rumours circulating on social media that another famous actor, Zack Orji, has passed away.

The AGN president debunked the rumour in his post via Facebook, revealing that Mr. Zack Orji is alive.

He said, "Please disregard troublemakers who enjoy circulating false information. This is to show how wicked some people can be. It is relatively unacceptable. He will not die but live to testify to the good works of God in Jesus’ name.”

The false news comes days after the demise of veteran actor Amaechi Muonagor, who passed away after suffering kidney failure.

It was also gathered that Zack Orji had been in the news about his ill-health after it was reported that he had slumped and was in a deteriorating state.
