Emeka Rollas Ejezie, National President, AGN, in a 55 seconds viral video said: “And so we bid farewell to one of our own, we celebrate Rachel Etabuno Oniga. We celebrate your life and the measure of its wealth, your unquantifiable and tireless contributions to our guild. Your professionalism, legacy and every single life you have touched while you were here on this earth. Thank you for your friendship and all the memories we hold dear. It’s indeed a privilege to know you, until we meet to part no more. AGN will never forget you. Rest in Peace Mama Rachel”.

AGN is raising funds to give the Veteran Actress, Chief Rachel Etabuno Oniga, a befitting burial and support her immediate family.
