Nollywood Mourns Again As Newly Married Top Film-maker/Director Passes Away (Photos)


This is another sad moment for the Nigerian entertainment industry and Nollywood, as top film-maker and director has passed away. 
 
A Calabar-born mother of one who is a top Nollywood film-maker and movie director, Ansa Bassey Kpokpogri has passed away after reportedly complaining of pains from peptic ulcer.
 
Announcing her death, a film-maker, Uduak Isong Oguamanam, the younger sister of Nollywood top producer, Emem Isong, took to her Facebook to write a touching tribute to the deceased;

"Grief. It makes you remember things. Minute details, like the sound of their feet, the colour of their hair and the sweet smell of their body spray. It makes you regret. The holidays you never took, the movies you never watched together, the visits you kept planning to but never made. It reminds you of your own mortality. 

"You wonder if there’s a row call and what your number is on the list. Death doesn’t warn you. One moment you’re laughing with a loved one, your head thrown back, with wanton abandon, the next your eyes are bloodshot from weeping for a loss so deep no one can understand. I’ll never understand, never come to terms with your death.

"You were many things to me; Friend. Sister. Business partner. Supporter. Colleague. My life was better because you were in it. Sleep well my beautiful, adorable, amazing Ansa. Till we meet again to part no more."
