At Last, Muna Obiekwe's Impostor Surrenders

Even at the point of death, an impostor sought to benefit from Muna Obiekwe.

It was a day of total chaos on social media with conflicting reports
emanating from different sources regarding popular actor, Muna Obiekwe
on Sunday, January 18, 2014.

First were unconfirmed reports that the actor had died in the
eveningof Sunday, January 18, 2014 only for a Twitter user in the
actor's name tweeting to counter claims that he was dead.

However, credence was lent to the handle's claim at the time by the
views ofNollywoodstakeholders including the president of the Actors
Guild of Nigeria, Ibinabo Fiberesima who said they had no information
to confirm that Muna was really dead in response to NET's enquiries.

But with colleagues of the late actor later confirming that the
controversial actor had diedwhile paying tribute to his talent and
time on earth, it soon became clear that the Twitter handle -
@MunaObiekwe, is really a fake account.

Called out by Muna's colleague,Nonso Diobi, the user finally
surrendered in the early hours of today, Monday, January 19, 2015
confirming its fake status but not without hurling invectives at Nonso
for exposing the account as fake to everyone on Twitter.
