Zack Orji underwent two brain surgeries and is fine – AGN President
The National President of Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Emeka Rollas has disclosed that veteran Nollywood actor, Zack Orji underwent two successful brain surgeries.
This is coming after rumours broke out earlier this week that the actor had died but Emeka Rollas swiftly debunked the claims.
It will be recalled that Mr Orji, was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the National Hospital in Abuja on New Year’s Eve after he collapsed in his house.
In a new interview on Afia TV on YouTube, the President of AGN noted that the veteran actor underwent two brain surgeries after he had collapsed and has significantly improved.
“Zack is never in a position of seriously needing attention as we speak, if not because of privacy I would have just connected him on the phone here, you will see him.
“He has survived two brain surgeries, he is in good health, and he is speaking. For somebody to wake up and say that Zack has passed on, is inhuman,” the AGN President said.
Mr Rollas further noted that at the moment, preparations are being made to send Zack Orji abroad for post-surgery evaluation.
He also chastised people for spreading fake rumours about the actor adding that the news was distressing for his family, especially his wife.
“Because of the internet age, people just want to grow their page and they can spill nonsense, that was why somebody woke up yesterday morning and said Zack has passed on and I quickly reacted,” Mr. Rollas said.
