The Nigerian movie industry has again been thrown into mourning following the passing of movie director, Dimeji Ajibola.

The deceased who was behind the popular series Shanty Town, has passed away in the early hours of today November 3 after battling an undisclosed illness.

His work spanned film, animation, VFX, virtual worlds, and interactive media.

He held a diverse educational background, having studied filmmaking and cinematography at the New York Film Academy in Universal Studios, advanced character animation at Animation Mentor in San Francisco, and visual effects at VFXLearning.

He was the brain behind the 2012 urban musical film, Hoodrush that won multiple awards, including Best Movie at the 2012 Green Me Film Festival in Germany, Best Actor and Soundtrack at the Nollywood Movies Awards, and Best Supporting Actor at the AMAA Awards.

Condolences to His Family.

Ladies and Gentlemen there is need for everyone of us to live this life in the Conciousness of our Eternity.

Everything and Anything you are doing in this life without First settling the Matter of your Eternity is you living a risky life.

Settling the Matter of your Eternity entails coming a Genuie relationship with JESUS CHRIST and living for HIM.

Eternity is a very Serious Matter.
Dont play with your soul .
Dont play with your Life.
Heaven and Hell are Real!

It does not matter who you are or who you are not!
If you Depart this World without JESUS CHRIST! You Have Wasted your Life! It is Staight to Hell and its Forever and Ever.

Get the Needful now that you can.
The NEEDFUL is a Genuie relationship with JESUS CHRIST.

can you just stop this nonsense? Before you were born where were you? If you can't even prove that you were somewhere before you were born, how can you clam to go somewhere after you're gone. All this enternity nonsense and fabrications should stop.

At this point I'll advise young people to watch their lifestyle. Excessive consumption of alcohol, weed and drugs (I'm not in anyway implying that the deceased was guilty of this) can reduce your lifespan by 50%

Once you become successful, you should be extremely cautious about what you take into your body.

Tribalism has destroyed you past, present and future. You even have the mind to think tribal and inject tribal sentiments into a sad news like this.

Mend your ways. You ain't living forever

I support the way they don't disclose, what killed them.... because Nigerians can use that against children and other families in the future ....
For example, especially if the person died of hereditary illness.....Dem go say no Marry from that family ooo....na so so sickness dey kill them.
