The family of late Nollywood actor, Chukwuma Uchegbo, aka Don Brymo, have announced plans for his burial.
According to the flyer released by his family, the late actor will be laid to rest Friday, August 25 after a ceremony at the Ezi-Ezenta Hall in Enu-Avomimi Enugu-Ukwu, Anambra State.
This is just as the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria has said that it has commenced investigation into the death of veteran actor, Don Brymo Uchegbu.
In a statement signed by the AGN’s National President, Emeka Rollas, the Guild said Brymo’s demise has also proven further credence to their incessant clarion calls on members to sign up for the AGN health management (HMO) plans to help put their health in check constantly.
The initial findings indicate that Brymo did not die on any movie set. The guild also emphasized that the untimely death of Brymo further reinforces their persistent calls for members to enrol in the AGN health management (HMO) plans, which aim to ensure that their health is regularly monitored and taken care of.
The AGN’s decision to investigate the circumstances surrounding Don Brymo’s death demonstrates their commitment to seeking the truth and providing clarity to the public. They hope that this investigation will shed light on the unfortunate incident and help prevent similar occurrences in the future.
The statement reads in part
“The Actors Guild of Nigeria was thrown into another state of grief following the sudden demise of Don Brymo who was reported to have slumped on a film set in Rivers State and later passed on. This tragic death came as a rude shock and has thrown the entire Guild into another grieving moment as we mourn his death. I have taken reports from all the actors on the set with him and found out that he didn’t collapse on set as widely speculated.
While I commiserate with his immediate family, we have commenced preliminary investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death, especially from the hospital where he was rushed to.
This has also proven further credence to our incessant clarion calls on members to sign up for the AGN health management (HMO) plans to help put their health in check constantly.
I and the entire members of the Guild are saddened by this tragic development of a death that could have been possibly avoided if urgent intervention was provided. May Don Brymo’s soul rest in peace and may God comfort all of us left behind to mourn him. We shall keep members abreast with the latest information and updates from the family.”
