Kanyi Daily reported that the actor died at the age of 57 about a week ago following a protracted illness but the family chose not to announce his death for reasons yet to be ascertained.
Reports say the actor had battled an undisclosed ailment for some time and was reported to have relocated to Jos, the Plateau State capital for further treatment of the ailment that had kept him in and out of the hospital for over two years.
Taking to her official Twitter handle on Sunday, Stephanie expressed shock over the actor’s death.

According to her, Saint Obi’s work and impact will always be remembered.
The actress prayed to God to give his family the strength to bear the loss.
