Steven 'The Great' Kanumba, one of Tanzania's most popular actors, died in the early hours of this morning. Cause of death is still sketchy. Some say a fatal car accident, others say he was killed by an actress girlfriend after a quarrel. The actor, who is a household name in Tanzania, also featured in a few Nollywood movies. He was only 28 years old. A shocking news for Tanzania and the Africa movie Industry. So sad! May his soul rest in peace...amen.

ReplyDeleteHis shocking death, sent me back in the year 2002 when ma brother Tumaini Lusenga introduced him to me at Green Hope Org., in MWANZA, he was looking for actors & actresses claiming about his intention to popularize the movie industry, I promised to join him when back in DSM, unfortunately I couldn't manage until his death, in his latest days I advised him to act on Tanzanian real life situation through his face book A/C. We shall always remember him! R.I.P. KANUMBA!
ReplyDeleteHe was such a role model to our country.RIP kanumba,movie industry in Tanzania is not that huge like nigeria and ghana,but because of him,he tried his best to be recognized to other african countries.
