The actor’s death was confirmed by filmmaker Abel Alechenu on his Instagram page.
Alechenu wrote, “This one hit differently but all I can say is it is well. When I called your phone and it rang, I thought all I heard were just rumours until I was told by the voice, which wasn’t yours, that you had gone to be with the Lord.
