Nollywood in tears as AfricaMagic mourns the painful death of Amaka Igwe

Amaka Igwe
Aside the uncontrollable tears from her colleagues in Nollywood, the AfricaMagic family is also lamenting and mourning the painful exit. 
The leading pay TV content provider said it is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the iconic Nigerian film and TV producer Mrs. Amaka Igwe. 
"The African creative arts industry has lost an admired and respected leader whose vast knowledge, proven business acumen and boundless imagination made an immeasurable contribution to the development and success of our community". They told SHOWBIZPLUSng in a press statement. 

The statement further said, Mrs. Igwe will be remembered for her numerous accomplishments, most notably in creating widely popular, highly entertaining programming that resonated with audiences across this continent, and throughout the Diaspora. 
A tireless champion for content made in Africa for Africans by Africans, Mrs. Igwe has left behind an enormous legacy built on skill, talent, determination and vision.  AfricaMagic extends its sincere condolences to her husband, her children, her family and friends during this difficult time, and will honour Mrs. Igwe’s memory by screening a collection of her most beloved works in the days and weeks ahead. M-Net West Africa Regional Director Wangi Mba-Ukouwa confirmed the special tribute saying, ‘Amaka Igwe was a giant in our world, a loyal supporter, a committed professional and a valued partner. We will commemorate her achievements and her prolific passion for storytelling in the way that best benefits her esteemed stature – by dedicating time on our channels to her memory as a testament to her many achievements.’ Information on tribute programming will be communicated shortly, both across the AfricaMagic channels and on its website www.africamagic.tv
