Zack Orji clears air on country of origin – Blueprint Newspapers Limited

Veteran Nollywood actor Zack Orji has dismissed social media rumours claiming that he is from Gabon.

The renowned actor, who took to his Instagram page – @realzackorji – to express his frustration, said the falsehood was not the first about him.

“I am a full-blooded Nigerian, hail from Enugu the coal city State, and proud of my Nigerian heritage.

“God should deal with those people that originated the lies.

“Not long ago, they said I was dead; by God’s grace and mercy, it turned out to be a lie from the pit of hell.
“Now, another lie from the pit of hell has emerged, this time they said that I am from Gabon. That I am not a Nigerian.

“I hereby issue a disclaimer dissociating myself from that lie. I am a full-blooded Nigerian.

“Both my parents are Nigerians; I am from Enugu State, the coal city State. I am proudly Nigerian and equally proud of my Nigerian heritage.

“God Almighty will deal with whoever originated that lie. He will deal with the liar as He deems fit,” he wrote.
