Colleagues of veteran actor, Abdulsalam Sanyaolu, popularly known as Charles Olumo and Agbako, have announced his demise.
This was revealed in a statement on Thursday by the president of Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), Bolaji Amusan, popularly known as Mr Latin, on Instagram.
Mr Latin wrote “#tampanglobal announces the passing of Pa Charles Olumo Sanyaolu, fondly known as AGBAKO. Details of the burial arrangements will be shared at a later time. Good night father, 25/02/1923 to 31/10/2024.”
The late, talented actor celebrated his 101th birthday earlier this year modestly with his family and close associates.
It is believed that events leading to Agboko’s demise will be revealed when the family releases the official statement on the departure of the great actor.
