The Ogwashi Uku indigene of Delta State, who had lamented in a report in 2013 that he had been neglected by his colleagues, was said to have passed on several months after he survived a stroke attack.
Bunor’s popular son, Peter Jr confirmed the death of his father saying the actor passed on in the early hours of Friday.
“In the early hours of today, my father, friend, teacher, confidant passed on.” he wrote
Peter Bunor had complained for years, accusing his colleagues, even the ones he mentored in the industry, of abandoning after he fell ill.
“Since this thing happened there has been no single actor that called me to ask about my condition. It is a shame on their part. Would they say they don’t know that I am sick? ‘I had a stroke and that was the end of it” He told Vanguard in 2013.
He finally lost his battle with stroke. May his soul rest in peace, amen.
