1)Amaka Igwe
Amaka Igwe’s death on April 28th, 2014 dealt a fatal blow to the Nigerian film industry as we perceive it. Amaka was one of the few cinematographic geniuses Nollywood could boast of. She owned Top Radio 90.9 FM as well as Q Entertainment, the first Nigerian drama series channel. She was the mastermind behind the Fuji House of Commotion series which got numerous Nigerians glued to their television screens every Sunday evening. The timing was always too small for all of us that grew up watching fun figures like Chief and Ireti knock us out with laughter and commercials were regarded with utmost scorn. Her other motion works include Violated, Checkmate and Rattle Snake which were all major crowd pleasers. Amaka Igwe who died at the age of 51 is survived by her husband and her three children.

2) Kefee
The Branama Queen, Kefee whose real name was Irikefe Don Momoh was a gospel superstar that won the hearts of many. She was a shining light to many who were touched by her unique music. She reportedly collapsed on a flight to Chicago in the United States of America on May 28, 2014 forcing the plane to make an emergency landing and she was eventually rushed into the Intensive Care Unit of an hospital in Los Angeles. She however gave up the ghost in the early hours of Friday, June 13, 2014 at the Desert Springs Hospital, Las Vegas. Kefee had a powerful voice that she made good use of. Her hit song Kokoroko featuring Timaya crossed gospel borders and was also well received by secular pundits. Almost every church choir in Nigeria has got church goers dancing with Kefee’s songs. Her music is timeless and will be remembered for decades to come.

She will forever be remembered for her dogged approach in putting an end to the scourge of fake drugs and food items that plagued the Nigerian nation for years.

4) Dr. Stella Ameyo Adadevoh
Even though she was not relatively known while she was alive, Dr. Mrs Adadevoh was a true Nigerian heroine who helped our country immensely through the singular act of preventing Ebola index patient, Patrick Sawyer, from leaving the hospital he was quarantined in and spreading it to every Tom, Dick and Harry on the streets of Lagos. She died after contracting the disease from Sawyer.

Ameyo was one individual with a legacy etched into her veins as the blood that ran through them could be linked to her great grandfather, Herbert Macaulay, a Nigerian nationalistic icon. She who post-humously given the 2014 Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) Integrity award in recognition for her efforts in reducing the spread of the Ebola Virus Disease in Nigeria. When people remember how the fear of Ebola came to be the beginning of wisdom, they will also remember the woman who saved over 170 million lives by a singular act.

5) Chaz B
For some people, radio will never remain the same again without Chaz B. The broadcasting icon whose real name was Charles Bruce Chukwuma took control of the airwaves on Rhythm 93.7 FM with his programme, Sharing Life Issues With Chaz B which aired every Monday to Friday at 5.30-7.oo pm. A lot of people needing inspiration and trying to get a handle on life turned to Chaz B’s soothing voice for direction and comfort. His impressive work on the show earned him the award for Best On Air Personality in Radio at the 2010 Nigerian Media Merit Awards. He died late Novermber, 2014 after fighting a protracted illness.
Charles touched an infinite number of lives, many he never even knew existed. The Delta State born broadcaster consulted on management turn around in the hotel and entertainment sectors in Nigeria. His impact on the Nigerian media cannot be overemphasized.

7) Clem Onyeka
Nollywood rookie, Clem Onyeka had just began to find his feet in the Nigerian movie when his life ended in a very tragic way. He was shot dead in Asaba on October 14th and he died from a stray bullet that hit him as a fierce gun fight ensued between officers of the law and armed robbers. In a phone call with The Sun, his friend and colleague, Zubechi Onyia said “I am sad that Clem died when he should be celebrated as the best up-and-coming actor this year. It was painful watching Clem die!” Onyeka was one actor who had begun to make a mark and his death came as a shock to all. He died on the set of a movie so it could be said that he died doing the thing that he loved.
