Nsonaso:

Chief how you take know?

I am his fan. Just search a little on the Internet. It is not a secret.

Krublog:

I think he died of a "broken heart"💔💔💔

Saint Obi was having a flourishing acting career until his desire to marry a financially strong woman led him to marry one stone-hearted woman who was senior executive in telecom industry and who happens to come from a wealthy family. At the end of the day, money Saint Obi no see. Rather, having fathered some children, Saint Obi was thrown out of his home and his children taken far away from him. Consequently, Saint Obi's fight against this woman and her strong family took a toll on him and the rest is history.

I don't know why his friends are speaking in parables instead of saying things as they are to honour his memory.

Lesson: Sometimes, money is not everything.

May his soul rest in peace, Amen.

This is serious.

Easily the most versatile actor Nollywood ever produced in their history


Nollywood talent pool seems to have dried up since a decade ago!

The quality of screenplay and production have largely evolved and improved, but the quality of acting failed to keep up!

The Last Party.

Kkonojo23:

He stared in Rocky part 4 against Sylvester Stallone.

Even acted with Van Damme in Universal soldier.

He's the character in He man cartoon.


He's the main man in Red scorpion too.

By the way, Dude has an iQ of 160! 0.1 percent of our population.

I'm closer both geographically and historically to the Igbos but I'd rather be seen as a Yoruba if it will disassociate me from the self hating, chest beating, criminally minded folks like yourself.

Your people go around spreading hate and bigotry and only cry out when the tables are turned.

I how Aguyi Ironsi destroyed the powers of the regions and concentrated power in the center because he thought Igbos have come to stay in power. Alas, today you have the least states and are treated with disdain.

There's also the issue of the "secession clause" that Azikiwe fought against. Today nko
Azikwe fought against it cause he wanted a UNITED Nigeria with the Igbos FIRMLY in charge. He already knew he'd be in government at a very senior level. He wanted an empire to control with his kinsmen.
Who's crying for secession today?

You guys will never learn!!!

That was how this "anyhowness" led to Obi's loss. The only candidate with sincere intentions.

You guys led a campaign of calumny and insensitivity and demarketed a good product.

You guys will learn I know. Albeit, the hard way.

They no longer teach history in schools I heard.

As one who had the opportunity of studying history during my time, I think I owe your generation a duty to put you through.

There was a post earlier today bashing the Igbos on Facebook. Mocking them actually that if Hadi were Igbo, they wouldn't have allowed the world to hear word.

I put up a strong worded comment to condemn the author and owner of the page.

If you know RantHq on Facebook go check it out. It is actually owned by a Yoruba.

There I was defending Igbos and here you are just doing exactly what she said. Even on a topic that's supposed to be one of sober reflection and best wishes to a dearly departed "Igbo" man.

I pray you find peace for whatever troubles your soul.

Amen.

na waiting kill samson?

Back in the days Nollywood was doing better than now, seems we are moving backwards.
Am sure it was those old movies that hyped Nollywood movie industry.

On May 13, 2023, the news of the death of veteran actor, Saint Obi, whose real name is Obinna Nwafor, swept across the entertainment landscape.

Since his demise, many have taken to social media to express their condolences to the family and share their feelings of grief. Despite the loss, Obi's legacy lives on in his art, where he poured his heart and soul into his creations.

The actor, who was a successful on-screen legend, made childhood for many of us notable by presenting eccentric performances whenever he had the chance.

Known as the action movie star of his era, he was born on November 16, 1965, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Obi began his acting career in the late 1990s and quickly became a household name due to his exceptional talent and good looks.

Before his demise, he appeared in numerous Nollywood films, but here are five of the most notable films that made him a force to be ed forever.

1. Candle Light (1998)
Saint Obi's breakthrough role came in the film Candle Light, directed by Chico Ejiro. The film featured the actor star as one of the male leads alongside other talents but he shines through, earning him a spot in other movies. The film was a massive success and is still considered a classic in Nollywood.

2. State of Emergency (2000)
Saint Obi appeared in the film State of Emergency, which Teco Benson directed. It is a Nigerian action movie about vengeful former soldiers who hold government ministers hostage for a set of demands. Obi's performance in the film earned him more acclaim and helped solidify his status as a leading actor in Nollywood.

3. Sakobi, the Serpent Girl (2001)
The movie stars Obi and Susan Patrick, with direction by Zeb Ejiro. The plot revolves around a man named Francis, who is punished with a short lifespan of wealth after a plot to use his daughter as a ritual sacrifice fails. He also falls in love with a snake girl named Sakobi who turns his life upside down.

4. Wanted Alive (2001)
In the 2001 movie directed by Chico Ejiro, Obi plays the leader of a criminal gang who's trying to get out of a life of crime. The film stars other action stars like Hanks Anuku, Jerry Amilo, Paul Obazele, Emeka Enyiocha, and Tuvi James. It is also one of the many films that made the audience fall in love with the Nigerian James Bond, Saint Obi.

5.Festival of Fire (2002)
The on-screen legend also showcased his talent in this all-time classic directed by Chico Ejiro. The movie tells the story of a village that sacrificed human beings until the involvement of the church and Christianity.

First knew this guy on the Candlelight Soap where Charles Okafor and Kate Henshaw starred as well. TJ and Kenny. Having this nostalgic feeling right now.
May his soul rest in peace.
