Nigerian filmmaker and husband to popular Nollywood actress Chioma Chijioke, Kingsley Anosike, has been buried amid tears.
It will be recalled that Kingsley, who was only 36 years old, slumped and died during a football match in Kuwait on Saturday, February 18th 2023.
He relocated to Kuwait in November 2022, with plans to establish a studio in the Asian country before his sudden and unfortunate death.
The deceased was laid to rest amid tears and wailings at St. Francis Catholic Church Ivite Aguleri, Anambra East LGA on Wednesday, April 19th.
A video shared online shows the heartbreaking moment his bereaved wife wept profusely and showered encomium on him even in death during his funeral.
Chioma was heard saying in Igbo that Kingsley was a good husband who married her well. She repeatedly called him “odogwu” – meaning a strong man, filled with charisma.
May his soul continue to rest in peace!
