Twelve years ago, ace comedian, On-Air-Personality and compere, Gbenga Adeboye, gave up the ghost.
Even before the Nigerian comedy industry became a thriving business, pioneers like Adeboye had already hit stardom with unconventional humour.
April 30, 2015 marked the 12 years since one of Nigeria’s most charismatic entertainers died.
The humour merchant and legendary king of traditional ‘Oduology’ tragically surrendered himself to the cold hands of death after a battle with kidney-related diseases.
Months before his death, the late comedian and OAP was woven in mysteries after he was reported to have woken up after he was confirmed dead.
The Osun State-born entertainer sparked off controversies with tales of his journey in the underworld and his interactions with God.
A singer, comedian, radio presenter and Master of Ceremony, Gbenga Adeboye, who was born in 1959, was a man of multiple talents.
