Nollywood actress, Patience Oseni, has died after suffering from stroke for many years.
Chairman of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Emeka Rollas, confirmed her death on Wednesday. Patience, however, died on Monday.
“With deep sense of sorrow but with total submission to the will of Almighty God, we announce the passing unto eternal glory of Patience Oseni, veteran Actress and member of the Actors Guild of Nigeria,” he said in a statement.
Patience’s career spanned more than two decades after starring in a lead role in Helen Ukpabio’s 1999 hit movie, End of the Wicked.
Her father was from Ogun State while her mother was a native of Cross River.
A former billboard model, Patience made her debut in acting in Opa Williams’ 1995 movie, Deadly Passion.
In 2017, she was one of 24 ailing Nollywood stars who benefitted from a N3.5million donation given by a cleric, Chris Okafor.
She also benefitted from another N5 million lifeline donated by former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, to ailing Nollywood actors in 2019.
