Ex-Big Brother Naija housemate, Thin Tall Tony also wrote, “Was looking like a great day until I heard about your passing sir.

“He (Mr Eze), ladies and gentlemen, has been my biggest influence in characters on stage (he was too good on stage and a Lord in switching roles) he could play 6 roles in one production and you couldn’t tell the difference.

“We dancers, stage actors from the national theatre will always miss you.”
