Reacting to a mourning post by the guild, Chiamaka said, "Please take down the post. Let me be the one to announce my papa's death."

Questioning why the movie industry waited until members' deaths to show love, she warned that nobody should contact her now that her father is dead.

"Please, Actors' Guild, I don't want you guys posting my daddy. Make nobody post my papa, please. This is a very hard video for me to make. Nobody should call me; nobody should post my daddy's poster.

"I'm still wearing my daddy's shirt. Take that post down, please. Let me be the one to announce my papa's death. I don't want you guys to do that for me."
