Veteran filmmaker, Chico Ejiro to be buried on February 20
Veteran Filmmaker, Chico Ejiro who died on Christmas day is set to buried on the 20th of February. This was according to a statement by the older brother of the deceased, Zeb Ejiro who noted that Chico died of complications from High Blood Pressure.
“His demise followed complications arising from high blood pressure for which he had been treated . He had returned delightfully to the only business he was so passionate about and had concluded his movie shoot barely two days before Christmas. His painful death was a tragic drama that took less than 10 minutes and there was silence.” the statement read
According to Zeb, his late brother in the last six years had devoted his entire life and resources to assure the health and survival of his youngest child who was diagnosed with cancer-related ailments while still a toddler.
He said Chico’s wife, Joy Ejiro, had been in the US for a while caring for their son and only returned with him temporarily for the yuletide holiday after being away for two years.
The legend is gone. RIP TO his soul
So sad, may his gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
What a pathetic situation with the toddler, may Almighty God heal the baby.
May Almighty God spare our lives and those involved in the family beyond the time with sound health.
There’s nothing like sound health? May Almighty God heal the baby and give him quick recovery.
May his soul rest in peace… condolences to his family and friends…
R.I.P Chico. May your gentle soul rest in peace. Death they say is a necessary end that will come when it will come. I remember him as a great director and producer of such acts like late Sam Loco, Nkem Owoh, Emeka Ike, Ramsey Noah, Nkeiru Slyvanus, Saint Obi, Genevieve Nnaji and a host of others too numerous to mention
Truly this man is dead
May his soul and that of all the faithful departed through the mercies of God rest in. Peace amen
