Bisi Komolafe’s Death: Colleague Recalls Last Minute Efforts To Save Her

933716_bisik_jpeg134d778c8382035c9275d8beb4a9ba84Movie practitioners, members of Nigeria’s entertainment industry and Nigerians in general have continued to react to the passing away of Bisi Komolafe on New Year’s eve in Ibadan, south west Nigeria.

According to Prince Jide Kosoko, President of the Association of Theatre-Arts Practitioners, ANTP, the umbrella body for Yoruba movie practitioners, the union was planning to raise funds to help Bisi when the tragedy struck.

“I got to know of her illness on Sunday when Yinka Quadri called me that there is a need for us to raise fund for her treatment abroad. But unfortunately, we got the shocker this morning that she is dead. It is sad that this is coming on a new year” He said.

It would be recalled that earlier, Mr Yinka Quadri, another prominent Yoruba actor, had disclosed in a telephone chat that the condition at which he last saw her on Sunday, December 30, had weighed him down. “I had to reach out to the Elders of the Association of National Theatre Practitioners (ANTP) to raise money for Bisi’s health because she had run out of money.” he said.

    Hmmmmm! What mark are we leaving behind?
