Nollywood is in mourning following the death of legendary Yoruba actor Ayobami Mudashir Olabiyi, affectionately known as Bobo B.
The beloved figure in Yoruba cinema passed away after a prolonged illness, as confirmed by Yeye Bose Akinola, Governor of the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) in Oyo State.
Olabiyi had missed a scheduled film shoot in September due to his deteriorating health and was hospitalized at the University College Hospital in Ibadan, where he ultimately lost his ability to speak and move.
Akinola expressed her condolences, stating, “May God grant his family and all TAMPAN members the strength to cope with this loss. Insha Allah, Amen.”
