Nollywood actor Emeka Ike broke down in tears after hearing about the death of veteran actor Olu Jacobs.
A video circulating on social media showed the actor becoming emotional as he reacted to news of the passing of the veteran actor, who died at the age of 84.
Emeka Ike and Olu Jacobs were both prominent figures in Nollywood, with Jacobs having a career that spanned several decades and generations of Nigerian actors.
The emotional moment has since generated mixed reactions online, with some Nigerians sympathising with Emeka Ike while others questioned why he was being recorded while mourning.
@Aretetolife_03: Can we just normalize allowing people to grieve in peace, even if they’re celebrities? I find it strange when people record those who are mourning just to post the video on the internet. It doesn’t make any sense.
