Veteran Yoruba actor, Fadeyi dies

Fadeyi Oloro

 

The veteran Nollywood actor, Ojo Arowosafe with stage name Fadeyi Oloro was reportedly dead after long time unknown illness which deformed him physically.

 

Fadeyi, who was quite popular in the 80s and 90s for his role as a herbalist in movies, especially with his trademark costume, was confirmed dead at his apartment today,  Lagos and begged Nigerians for financial assistance.

 

 

Fadeyi Oloro, originally christened Ojo Arowosafe, is the old Yoruba cinema’s Deimos – the quintessence of terror in Greek mythology and one distinct thing defines his stage persona. Dread.

 

Fadeyi’s darkened face, sometimes made more horrific by excessive cosmetics, was perhaps a reflection of what dwelled in his ‘cinematic’ heart. Unlike the loquacious Arakangudu, Fadeyi rarely spoke; and he made no pretension to long, winding chant of incantations. All Fadeyi would not say with his mouth, he said loudly and, yes, violently through the barrel of the gun.
