The Nollywood industry has been struck by the sad news of the death of legendary Yoruba actor, Ayobami Mudashir Olabiyi, popularly known as Bobo B. The actor, a renowned figure in the Yoruba movie industry, passed away following a period of illness.

Olabiyi, who was scheduled to appear on a movie set in Oyo State last month, was unable to attend due to his deteriorating health.

He was admitted to the University College Hospital (UCH) in Ibadan, Oyo State, where his condition worsened, leaving him unable to speak or move before his death.

The devastating news of his passing was confirmed by the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN).

The Oyo State governor of TAMPAN, Yeye Bose Akinola, announced Olabiyi’s death, stating that he was serving as the National Secretary of the association at the time of his passing. Olabiyi had previously held the position of TAMPAN governor for Oyo State.

In her heartfelt statement, Akinola said, “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.”

Olabiyi’s death has left a significant void in the Nollywood community, especially in the Yoruba film sector, where he was well-known and respected.

His contributions to the industry and his role within TAMPAN will be remembered fondly by colleagues, friends, and fans.

As the Nollywood community mourns this loss, tributes have begun pouring in for the actor, who left an indelible mark on the industry with his talent and dedication.
