However, the National President of AGN, Emeka Rollas, has urged the public to disregard the rumours, saying the actor is alive.
Rollas addressed the issue on his Instagram account, affirming that Orji is alive and urging the public to disregard the misinformation.
He wrote, “Mr. Zack Orji is alive. Please, ignore mischief makers who enjoy circulating fake news.
“This is to show how wicked some people can be. It is totally unacceptable.

Orji had been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the National Hospital in Abuja on New Year’s Eve.
