Veteran Nollywood actor Chiwetalu Agu has debunked reports making the rounds that he is dead, assuring fans that he is alive and well.

The actor, in a video shared via Instagram on Friday, urged his fans and family to ignore the false reports.

“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,” he said.

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.”

He stated further 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,” he said.
