Another Nollywood Actress Dies Of Cancer [Photo]


Doris Chima, a well-known Nollywood actress, died after a long battle with cancer.

Chima was a founding member of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) and the previous vice chairwoman of the Lagos AGN, according to source.

Chima was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 and had the afflicted breast removed to prevent additional damage.

Emeka Rising Ibe, the Lagos chairman of the AGN, confirmed the sad news to The Nation, saying that he is still in disbelief over the tragic tragedy because Chima was a loyal member and a good woman.

“She phoned me last week and pleaded with me not to remove her from the verification effort I went on to ascertain true members of the guild in Lagos because of her ill health,” he claimed.

“I got a call yesterday morning saying she had died. Though I have yet to pay a visit to the family, we have suffered a significant loss. I pray for her soul to Rest In Peace”.
