Nollywood Thrown Into Mourning As Veteran Actor Ayobami Olabiyi ‘Bobo B’ Dies

Olabiyi, a highly regarded figure in the Yoruba film industry, is reported to have passed away on Wednesday in Ibadan, Oyo State, following a prolonged illness that led to his hospitalization at the University College Hospital (UCH). In his final days, he was said to have lost the ability to speak or move, as his condition worsened significantly.

His death was confirmed by the leadership of the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), where he served as National Secretary.

A public announcement of his passing was made by a representative of TAMPAN’s Oyo State Governor, Bose Akinola, who said, “I have been directed by the Oyo State TAMPAN Governor, Her Excellency Yeye Bose Akinola, to announce the passing of our TAMPAN National General Secretary, Chief Alhaji Musadshir Ayobami Olabiyi ‘Bobo B.’ May God grant his family and all TAMPAN members worldwide the strength to bear this loss. Insha Allah, Amen.”

It was also reported that Olabiyi was scheduled to appear on a film set in Oyo in September, but his worsening health and subsequent hospitalization prevented his participation.
