Gov. Ademola Adeleke of Osun has commiserated with Nollywood fans, friends and families of late Murphy Afolabi, a popular Yoruba actor, who died on Sunday.
Adeleke, in a statement by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, on Monday in Osogbo, described late Afolabi as a good ambassador of Osun who dedicated his life through his acting prowess to upholding the ethos of Omoluabi.
” I remember the last time he visited me at the Country home. We discussed issues bordering on development of the entertainment industry.
” We agreed on plans to make Osun the cultural and tourism centre of Yorubaland.
“Mr Afolabi was a passionate and ingenious nollywood actor who stood firm in promoting the culture and tradition of the Yorubas through his God given talent.
“We can only be proud that he lived a life of grace and glory by successfully putting Osun in the frontline within the nollywood film industry.
“We hereby condole his numerous fans across the world, his colleagues, friends and families on the demise of a wonderful personality.
