Veteran Nollywood actor Chiwetalu Agu has dismissed rumours on the internet about his death, urging fans to ignore the fake news.
In a video shared on Instagram on Friday, Agu assured his fans and family that he is alive and well.
He said, “Fans and family, please disregard any rumors about my death, and kindly report the page of the blogger who started spreading them. I am very much alive by God’s grace.”
In the video, the actor introduced himself and reaffirmed his health, “Chief Chiwetalu Agu, okenmiri n’ezoru Oha 1 of Etiti Amokwe, Enugu State is not going to die anytime soon. Instead I will be the one to bury my enemies. Na who dig pit go fall inside. Na who dig grave go fall inside. I am yet to carry my grandchildren and I must carry them in good health when my children are ready.”
Agu further stated that if a major blogger had shared the false news, he would have considered legal action.
“If it were any of the big bloggers who carried the false information, I would have sued them for defamation, economic and business damage but the blogger involved is still struggling with likes.
“What baffles me is that in this 21st century, 2025, a lot of people are still gullible to believe such things without confirming whether it is true or not. Fan and families, disregard any rumours or rebuke anyone spreading such diabolical news about me,” he said.
