Her friend and colleague, Ruth Kadiri, took to the social media in an emotional tribute to confirm her death.
Ruth wrote: “I’m so scared of putting this picture up, not sure if it’s the right thing to do. You were that girl that made my life change. U were that girl that made me laugh a lot, you were that girl that I got so mad at. You were that girl that was friend to all. I spoke to u last week.
“You were the strongest sick person I know. I’m hurt by your death. My head still aches. Wish death was a thing that could be undone. I know God will have a new angel that makes him laugh all day and puts a smile on his face. Gone too soon. Rest in peace Nora. And look over all on earth that were genuinely connected to you. #RIPNora”
Meanwhile, her sister Tina Ugo, has also confirmed Nora death in a tribute she posted on her Facebook page.
Tina wrote: “A STAR IS GONE. It’s been hard for us all to accept this reality. I’ve been in denial for two days hoping it’s all a dream or that you were playing us all one of your usual Pranks.
“You were a TRUE FIGHTER, that fought so hard to live, but I guess the pains and discomfort became unbearable for you two days ago so you succumbed to Death.”
