Nollywood actor Chinedu Ikedieze, popularly known as Aki has spoken on how the death of his colleague, Ada Ameh, affected him.
Ada Ameh was not just her senior but like a mother to him.
Before her death, Ada Ameh played the role of his mother (Emuakpo Johnson) in the award-winning family comedy series, The Johnsons.
According to Aki, Ada Ameh was a mother to him both off-screen and on-screen and he was left devastated by her death.
In his words, “Ada was like a mother to me, you know!”
“She took that character off the screen. As in, even outside production. I have met her severally outside, you know, that people will say ‘see your Pikin’. You know that kind of a thing. So it was like losing a part of me. It was really. In fact, that was the least story or information or news I opted to hear.”
“That’s the biggest shock of our lives. That’s all of us. The Johnsons. It broke us… Forever”.
