The Nigerian entertainment world has been hit with grief following the tragic death of Vic Matt — a well-respected executive producer, film director, and manager of Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate Bright Morgan.
Born Victor Tobechukwu Okoli, Vic Matt was reportedly kidnapped on Friday around Ntachi Osa, Enugu State, and sadly killed by his abductors. The news has left Nollywood, friends, and fans heartbroken.
