Governor Sullivan Chime, has expressed shock at the sudden demise of
one Nigeria’s best known film producers/Directors, Mrs Amaka Igwe last
Monday in Enugu.
The Governor, in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary
Chukwudi Achife, described the late Mrs Igwe as an icon and pacesetter
in the Nigerian movie industry whose pioneering works had inspired
many and brought glory to the nation.
He said her death at the prime age of 51, will leave a huge vacuum in
the industry where she had excelled with uncommon vigour, creativity
and diligence.
The Governor extended his sympathies to the deceased family and the
nation’s entertainment community asking them to take solace in the
enduring legacies that she left behind.
