Actor Yomi Fabiyi is basking in his perceived power to bring harmony to the Yoruba Nollywood scene, claiming that he was instrumental in the much-anticipated reconciliation between veteran actors Yinka Quadri and Taiwo Hassan, affectionately known as Ogogo.
The night was a blur of jubilation and surprise when Yinka Quadri and Ogogo, two veteran actors known for their long-standing feud, suddenly reconciled in a stunning turn of events. The actors’ reunion came as a shock to many in the Yoruba film industry, who were unaware of the simmering tension between the two until this unexpected breakthrough. Unlike the trend of public feuds and social media drama that has become increasingly common among the younger generation of Nollywood filmmakers, Quadri and Ogogo had maintained a dignified silence about their disagreement until their surprise reconciliation, revealing a quiet yet potent rivalry within the industry.
Actor Yomi Fabiyi couldn’t contain his pride when he realized that his birthday and housewarming party had become the scene of a historic reconciliation between the two veteran actors, Yinka Quadri and Ogogo. Fabiyi, referring to the two actors as his “Nollywood fathers,” exuded a sense of joy and satisfaction, celebrating the union of the famous duo as the “best birthday gift” he could have received. For him, the fact that his own celebration had served as the catalyst for this emotional reunion underscored the value of bringing people together, bridging divides, and creating lasting memories.
Yomi Fabiyi acknowledged and expressed gratitude towards Pa Ajobiewe, who sponsored the pivotal moment of reconciliation between Yinka Quadri and Ogogo at his star-studded event. Fabiyi, honoring Pa Ajobiewe’s generosity and benevolence, conveyed his heartfelt appreciation for the benefactor’s role in making this historic moment possible. The actor’s recognition of Pa Ajobiewe’s contribution highlights the significance of community support in fostering unity, harmony, and reconciliation, especially within the close-knit world of Nollywood.
