Loading ...Nigerian Actor & Comedian Nkem Owoh (aka Osuofia) Kidnapped

Actor & Comedia Nkem Owoh
Heavily armed kidnappers plied their evil trade in Enugu State over the weekend, abducting popular actor and comic star, Nkem Owoh, famously known as Osuofia in Nollywood movies. According to an insider, who spoke with Daily Sun, Owoh, unarguably one of the most popular names in the nation’s movie industry, was abducted last Saturday afternoon along the busy Enugu/Port Harcourt Road.
Speaking further, the source who pleaded anonymity disclosed that the abductors are demanding for N15 million ransom.
Confirming the sad news, which many in Nollywood are still oblivious of, Mr. Segun Arinze, the National President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), said he received the news with a rude shock. “I’m perplexed,” he said.
He, however, promised to issue an official statement after due consultations with his executives and members of Owoh’s family.
It would be recalled that another popular actor in Nollywood, Pete Edochie, was kidnapped and later released by his abductors, a couple of months ago.
Nkem Owoh, from Enugu State, gained prominence in acting with his superb role in Kingsley Ogoro’s blockbuster – Osuofia in London.

Na wah oh…person no fit move around for im own country now?
This is bad, but it’s funny. They kidnapped Osuofia ke? Nna nawa o. I think I’m in the wrong business. Who even came up with this kidnapping idea?
Are we safe? I fear to go home these days oh!
Osuofia is my guy… This Kidnapping thing needs to be tackled by the govt..
I wonder if he will say “Kidnapper of my wife, you must not be very serious minded kidnappers” and use his Local Sense to get out of this one! This is just on the ground training for his next movie!
The sad part is that being kidnapped is like getting a guest appearance on an african reality show. He has the money, so he will be ransonmed. I doubt those kidnappers will harm him. He will soon be released, so he can make some more money, to be rekidnapped. Distribution of Wealth!
What next. I'm kinda scared to go back home now
ok.that was supposed to be a sad face
Ok who in the world has the name 'Ekwensu' Like seriously..If its a joke, pls end it oh!!!
Talking about Nkem Owoh, I hope he comes out alive..he is my Nigerian best actor!!!
Celebs, Actor and musicians be warned
Nigerain is becaming worser …Government should look into this matter because more is comming, I suggested that all uncompleted building should be checked, I wounder why such eminent…Upon all Police along the road, although they are for money and not for disturbing rubbers or kidnapers…
There is no security in Nigeria because those kidnappers moves along road with there Gone, sometimes they will park the guns in 911 or old car. If Government cannot look into this matter, there will be war.Commission in Enugu should querried, police on duty should dismissed because they knew about it
you are dam right
only if they can think the way you are thinking
don,t blame no one but nigeria government.they re the source of our problem today.nigeria need revolution.those bad people.
