The entertainment industry mourns as Vic Matt, longtime manager and confidant of BBNaija Season 10 star Bright, tragically passes away.
Victor Tobechukwu Okoli, celebrated film director and producer, met an untimely demise following his recent kidnap in Enugu.
Reports indicate armed assailants abducted Vic opposite the bustling Ntachi Osa district last Friday, with authorities later confirming his fatal shooting.
Renowned filmmaker Ben Cassie shattered the silence with an emotional Instagram post, honoring Vic as a rare beacon of authenticity in a cutthroat industry.
Their heartfelt tribute read:
“True allies are life’s rarest gems.
Your uplifting words found me even in my darkest silences.
In this viper’s nest we call Nollywood, you moved differently – a visionary consumed only by cinematic excellence. That you were taken this way, through such brutality, breaks us all. For every laugh shared and every kindness shown, my gratitude is eternal.
To those plotting in shadows: If my light threatens you, speak plainly. After surviving two poisonings and months immobilized, I’ve no fight left. Just peace to seek.”
