A content creator who attended late Nollywood legend Olu Jacobs' funeral in Lagos drew online attention after posting a video tribute to actress Kate Henshaw, crediting her with a remarkably hands-on role throughout the event.
The content creator described witnessing Henshaw take charge of nearly every aspect of the ceremony, from the Night of Tributes to the actual burial, without leaning on other available staff to handle the responsibilities.
Kate Henshaw's role at Olu Jacobs' funeral
According to Kunle of Lagos, Henshaw wore many hats at both occasions, stepping into roles ranging from event planning and coordination to ushering and welcoming guests.
"I just want to take a moment to appreciate Kate Henshaw. She was everything in one person in those two events. From the Night of Tributes to the burial, she was event planner, event coordinator, usher, greeter; she was just everywhere," he said.
He added that what struck him most was that Henshaw chose to do this not out of necessity, but seemingly out of personal devotion to the late actor.
"It was beautiful to see her do all of that, not because there weren't people who could do it, but I think she saw that as an opportunity to show her gratitude to Olu Jacobs. I might not know what their relationship was like, but it was such beautiful stuff. She was coordinating everything," he said.
