Femi Ogunrombi, well known as Papa Ajasco in Nollywood, has died.
Husseini Shaibu, a theatre professional, reportedly disclosed the actor’s passing to the Punch Newspaper.
In a post, the theatre practitioner wrote, “I have just been reliably informed that the ethnomusicologist, former Music Instructor with #NATIONALTROUPE and one time stand in for the ‘Papa Ajasco’ character on the popular #waleadenugaprod comic series ‘Papa Ajasco’ Mr. Femi Ogunrombi is dead.”
At the time this report was filed, the cause of his death was not known.
Femi Ogunrombi, who passed away, was well-known for his part in the Wale Adenuga comedy series, which also starred Mama Ajasco, Pa James, Miss Pepeye, and Boy Alinco.
When the previous character, Abiodun Ayoyinka, left the programme, Femi Ogunrombi assumed the role of Papa Ajasco.
