President Bola Tinubu has mourned popular Nollywood actors, John Okafor, well known as Mr Ibu, and Tolani Oyebamiji, fondly called Sisi Quadri.
Tinubu, who condoled with the families of the late actors, said they “brought joy and relief to millions of Nigerians by the exercise of their geniuses”.
The president, in a statement issued by his spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, on Sunday, March 3, 2024, urged the bereaved “to take solace in the truth that even though these beloved Nigerians have passed on, they will always live through their works which will remain an inspiration and a fount of good cheer for many.”
He also commiserated with the Actors Guild of Nigeria, the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), and the entire creative community, assuring them of his support, thoughts, and prayers in this time of grief.
