BREAKING: Another Popular Nollywood Actor Dies

Nollywood actor Yusuf Olorungbebe has passed away. The Yoruba actor reportedly succumbed to a chronic illness.

The news of his death was confirmed on Wednesday morning by actress Foluke Daramola via Instagram. She wrote, “We lost YUSUF OLORUNGBEBE. We submit to God’s will.”

This follows the recent death of actress Sharon Okpamen, who passed away nearly a month after giving birth to her second child.

Yusuf Olorungbebe had been struggling with a chronic illness for several months. He had appealed to Nigerians, the government, and his colleagues for financial assistance, stating that he needed millions of Naira for his recovery.

A few days before his death, actress Foluke Daramola had urged Nigerians to provide financial support for Olorungbebe due to his deteriorating health. She had written, “I’m here again to plead on behalf of my very esteemed colleague and production manager, Mr. Yusuf Olorungbebe, who is currently on life support. Please, no amount is too small to help him live. Your support will go a long way. Thank you so much, everyone.”
