Nollywood actor Ayobami Olabiyi is dead
Olabiyi, a highly regarded figure in the Yoruba film industry, reportedly died on Wednesday in Ibadan, Oyo State, after a prolonged illness that necessitated his admission to the University College Hospital (UCH).
Prior to his death, it was reported that he had lost the ability to move or speak.
Bose Akinola, the chairman of the Oyo State chapter of the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), confirmed the news in a statement released late Wednesday.
“We announce the death of our TAMPAN National General Secretary, Chief Alhaji Musadshir Ayobami Olabiyi ‘Bobo B.’
“May God give entire TAMPAN members globally and his family the fortitude to bear the loss,” he said.
