BREAKING: Nollywood Actor Bobo B Is Dead

Nollywood actor Ayobami Olabiyi, widely known as Bobo B, has sadly passed away in Ibadan, Oyo State.

His death was announced on Wednesday by Bose Akinola, the governor of the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) in Oyo State.

Olabiyi, who previously served as the governor of TAMPAN in Oyo State, was also its current national secretary. He died after a brief illness. Reports indicate that he was unable to attend a movie shoot in Oyo last month due to his declining health. He was later admitted to the University College Hospital (UCH) in Ibadan, where he passed away.

Akinola shared the news with a statement saying, “I have a directive of the Oyo state TAMPAN governor, Her Excellency Yeye Bose Akinola to announce the death of our TAMPAN national general secretary, Chief Alhaji Musadshir Ayobami Olabiyi ‘Bobo B. May God give his family and the entire TAMPAN members globally the fortitude to bear the loss. Insha Allah, Amen.”

Fellow actor Abidemi Temitayo paid tribute to Olabiyi, recalling a memorable moment they shared while on set. He reminisced, “I remembered what happened vividly the night I took that second slide with you after shooting…we were both on the set when the director was giving us a line. Bobo B then replied, ‘Bidemi is sure of herself, ki se Omode actor now,’ and we all laughed. But today, hearing about your death is so shocking.”

Temitayo expressed his sadness, saying, “Alhaji Mudashir Ayobami Olabiyi. This is so sad. Rest well Bobo B…. The industry will surely miss you, even the world at large.”
