Veteran Nigerian Stand-Up Comedian, Julius Agwu, has lost his mother.
Agwu announced the passing of his mother in a post shared on his Thread handle on Wednesday.
The comedian expressed his sadness over the loss as he attached a video of one of his emotional moments with the late woman.
As captured in the video, Agwu had paid a surprise to his mother in her farm where she was busy preparing cassava stalks for plantation.
The old woman, caught by surprise, shrieked at first before bursting into laughter after realising it was her standing behind her.
Agwu, who shared striking resemblance with the late matriarch, admitted that she will be dearly missed.
“My dearest mother has gone to be with the Lord 😭😭😭 Mama Gee, you will be dearly missed. Rest in peace.” He wrote.
Tribute had since flown from the comedian’s fans and followers who expressed their condolences over the loss.
