Muna Obiekwe was a damn good actor. Quite good.
I never really met him nor knew him personally but I
admired his acting skills onscreen whenever I watched the movies he featured
in. He was an actor who had a panache beyond comparison in many of his roles. I
always thought he was damned good.
That he is dead is a sad reality. That he died at all
when he lived and still lives in our hearts and on our screens is the painful
jolt to our systems. Because in Nollywood, actors (and good ones too, in Muna’s
mould) never really die. They only transcend to another place where, perhaps,
the ovation they receive over there gives lasting peace to their souls.
