- Clem Onyeka
Clem’s death came as very big blow to Nollywood stars, he died on October 2014 due to a stray bullet in Asaba.
Reports says he was hit by a stray bullet when the police and robbers were engaged in a bullet exchange battle, so sad the Nollywood industry lost a talent.
5. Aisha Ali-Balogun
Before her death she was a talented actress, a gifted mother and also a Television host. She was shot dead by armed robbers due to a robbery in Asolo bus top, Ikorodu road, Lagos in 16th December, 2016.
Her friend and her daughter were later abducted by the robbers but were later released after her husband paid a ransom (it was undisclosed). The killers were later caught and arrested in 2017, so sad and painful.
