Francis Duru, the Nollywood actor, has lost Ifeanyi, his son.
The actor announced his son’s demise in a touching tribute via his Instagram page on Thursday. He expressed grief while describing Ifeanyi as a “champion who fought like a lion”.
“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,” he wrote.
“Ifeanyi, my champ. I will miss you son, I will forever love you. Rest in peace. I give thanks to the Lord.”
Duru, however, did not disclose when his son died or the circumstances leading to his demise.
Ifeanyi’s death comes a couple of months after Duru celebrated his 15th birthday on social media.
In the Instagram post, he lauded Ifeanyi’s “deep spirituality and maturity”.
Francis got married to Adokiye, his wife, in 2003. Ifeanyi’s demise leaves the couple with three children.
