He is looking for mentions, a man that died @80 aged gracefully
BGSM:


Remember we are human, he’s now gone. It’s better we learn to forgive one another, no matter what he has done to you, please forgive him. If you think you ll never forgive him, tell us exactly what he has done to you.

Dejumo Lewis was a great actor, just like Olu Jacobs.
May papa's soul rest in peace 🕊️🙏

This man was super talented, yet relatively unknown. He was a great actor who obviously didn't reap from his talent. May he find everlasting rest wherever he finds himself.

He was renowned and an elder in the Nigerian TV industry.

A real "Agbalagbi" may his soul rest in peace.

Not sure what @christucker grief is but he’s comment is one of many things I see that the bot should actually remove . It should say something like “ this comment has been removed for violating xxxxx “

That said Pa Dejumo had a specific laugh “ he he he he “ and the way he sat on the throne during the village headmaster was also comical . RIP

An Icon is gone.
This is the man who depict the Nigerian situation in his walking steps by taking 2 steps forward, 4 steps backwards before he eventually walks to his throne in the television soap opera "The Village Head Master"
Many did not know the meaning of those dramatic steps.
He also aggitated for the Name - Nigeria Wood as against Nollywood emphasizing on the needless reason to name Nigeria movie industry after Hollywood.
He is one of the few surviving cast of the Old and New Village Head Master.(but now gone)
Some of the late cast I can recall are.
1. Sisi Clara
2. Counsellor Balogun(Whole Amele)
3. Chief Elehinmi(Funsho Adeolu)
4. Gorimapa
5. Teacher Garuba
6. Head Master Ali (Justice Esiri)
7. Okoro
8.Olusegun Olusola (Creator of the soap opera)
9. Enebeli Elebuwa
10. Rachel Oniga
Hmmm so many of the cast gone.
The only surviving ones I know of now are Amebo,Dagbolu,Folake,Oghene from the Old Village Headmaster soap.
Kabiyesi of Oja Town (Dejumo Lewis) rest in peace.
You made childhood great.

Oba oloja I like d wey he displays back & forth & sideways before he sat on his throne.

Bruh.

He was well-known in his time.

A lot of his generation are gone already, the likes of Sadiq Daba and Matt Dadzie.

He was in the same generation as Olu Jacobs, just that Mr. Jacobs continued mainstream acting for a while longer.

You did so well!

Chief Arigbabu (short for Chief Arigbabuwo) was the richest man by far in Oja.

Councillor Bamise was Councillor before Balogun and was always in conflict with Chief Eleyinmi.

Ajibike was Eleyinmi's beautiful daughter who was the subject of Teacher Ogene's unreciprocated affections.

The Prince's name was Prince Adekanmi, I think.

In the older series, there was a hunter whom Eleyinmi liked to call "hunter of cockroaches and bedbugs", but I forget his name.

There was also a village drunk....I think his name was Ojo.

This is how dire tribalism has eaten deep into people in this country, the deceased Man sin to this derailed guy might be because he is a Yoruba Man, and since the President is from SW, he sees every Yoruba as his Enemies. pathetic Even from the name you will know he is frustrated in a sane country someone like him should be in a sick home.
