Nollywood actress and social media influencer Nimmy Ferrari has died, with colleagues and friends mourning her sudden passing.
Actress Oluwakemisola Apesin confirmed Nimmy’s death in a post shared on Instagram.
She wrote:
“Everybody is back home we left only you IDERA Nimmyferrari it is well.”
Nimmy’s death has sparked an outpouring of grief online, particularly because she was reportedly preparing to celebrate the completion of her new home in Sagamu, Ogun State, with a housewarming ceremony.
Reports circulating on social media indicate that the ceremony was expected to take place only days before her death.
Videos shared online also showed people gathered at the newly completed property amid preparations reportedly connected to her burial.
The circumstances surrounding Nimmy’s death have not been officially explained by her family or representatives.
There are unconfirmed reports that she underwent surgery for fibroids and subsequently developed complications, but TheNaijaWide has not independently verified that account. It would therefore be premature to state the alleged surgery or complications as the confirmed cause of death.
Nimmy’s reported passing has also attracted attention because she had recently mourned the death of veteran actor Ogogoon social media, shortly before reports of her own death emerged.
The development has left many of her followers and colleagues shocked, with tributes continuing to appear across social media.
Nimmy had built a following through her activities as a social media personality and was also associated with the Nigerian movie industry.
Her death comes at a particularly painful moment for those close to her, coming shortly before she was reportedly due to celebrate a major personal milestone with the opening of her newly completed home.
As tributes continue, further details about Nimmy Ferrari’s age, cause of death and burial arrangements are expected to emerge from her family and colleagues.
