The candlelight service for late Nollywood actor Obinna Nwafor, popularly known as Saint Obi, took place on Friday, August 11, 2023, at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos State. Organised by the Actors Guild of Nigeria, the gathering to bid farewell to the late actor was a sad, calm and touching occasion where family, friends, and loved ones came together to honour his memory.
The President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Emeka Rollas, filmmaker Zeb Ejiro, Lillian Bach, Victor Osuagwu, Charles Okafor, Segun Arinze and a host of others were spotted at the event wearing all white to honour the beloved actor. Late Saint Obi’s ex-wife, Lynda Amobi, also graced the event with her three young children despite all the accusations about her role in the veteran Nollywood actor’s untimely death. While everyone wore white, Lynda wore an all-black mourning outfit revealing she is traditionally mourning the father of her children regardless of their separation and divorce. Irrespective of all the controversy about his sad and sudden death, was Saint Obi honored and immortalized like the legendary figure he was?
