The news of his death was announced by his son-in-law this morning via social media. Recall the late Yoruba actor recently reportedly suffered unexpected bleeding on the set of his new movie.


However, the cause of death of Dejo Tunfulu cannot be ascertained at press time.

Born May 1969, Dejo who started out with printing works, started his movie career in 1987 and carved a name for himself.


He has starred in hundreds of Yorùbá movies, with colleagues like Baba Suwe, Opebe, Latin and many others and has produced some great and successful movies like Won n wami lame, Bomboy, Boda Ode, and many others. Blessed with children, the father of two grown up daughters and a grandfather, will surely be missed for his unique comic role as an imbecile and chronic stammerer that always had something to say on anything.
