The renowned Nollywood actor, Francis Duru, announced the passing of his son, Ifeanyi, through a post on his Instagram account on Thursday morning. In an emotional social media post, Duru described Ifeanyi as a “champ” and a “lion” who fought valiantly.

The veteran actor expressed his grief, stating, “My champ! My lion, you fought like a lion. If this is the way He wants it, so be it, I still judge you faithful. Ifeanyi, my champ. I will miss you, son. I will forever love you. Rest in peace, son, rest. I give you thanks, Lord!”

The loss of a child is a deeply heartbreaking experience, and the actor’s words convey the profound sorrow and anguish he is enduring. As of the time of filing this report, the cause of death hasn’t been revealed by the family.
