SAD NEWS
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved actress, Nabbosa Tinah, a dedicated member of Limit Production for the past 15 years.

Tinah was a talented and passionate actress who featured in productions such as Choices TV Series, What If TV Series, and Freedom Movie. Her contribution to the film industry and to our production family will never be forgotten.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, colleagues, and all filmmakers who had the honor of working with her. May her soul rest in eternal peace.
