Death Hoax: Nollywood Star, Ali Nuhu Is Alive And Well

The Nigerian Film Corporation (NFC) has dispelled the purported passing of Dr. Ali Nuhu, its current Managing Director/Chief Executive and Nollywood Star.

In a statement Monday and signed by Mr. Brian Etuk, Director, Public Affairs, NFC, the death hoax is reported to being orchestrated within the social media space; and wishes to officially and unambiguously inform the general public that the reports, including videos laced with the pictures of Nuhu “are not only malicious, injurious but false in their entirety.

“Dr. Ali Nuhu is alive, well and discharging the responsibilities of the office of NFC’s Chief Executive, having been appointed by His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) on February 12, 2024.

“NFC wishes to draw the attention of perpetrators of these uncouth and dastardly acts, including their sponsors of the dire and unmistakable consequences of their actions, no matter the innocuousness of their intent.

“Meanwhile, appropriate measures have been initiated to arrest this ugly, baleful and unsatisfactory conduct and trend.

“NFC appreciates the genuine concerns expressed by the general public, private and public sector stakeholders as a result of the above.”
