Confirmed source just spoke with me that she passed on about two hours ago at her house by kilo busstop in surulere.
May her soul rest in peace. Amen.
She was a shining star in her time.




According to reports on The
Punch, a source disclosed that
she died an hour ago but
refused to give details.
On Monday, February 2,
Bukky Ajayi clocked 82-years
and was hosted to a small
celebration by her children at
her home, in Lagos.
Mama Bukky Ajayi as she is
fondly referred to studied
drama at the Institute of
Drama, London. She later
worked a while in London
before coming to Nigeria
where she started a
broadcasting career as an
announcer, presenter and
newscaster at Nigerian
Television Authority.
Ajayi was a part of the now
rested TV series Village
Headmaster. She is seen by
many as a living legend of the
Nigerian film industry. Despite
her advanced age, she still
goes on movie location.
May her soul rest in peace.
