Veteran Yoruba actor, Dayo Adewunmi, popularly known as Sule Suebebe, has passed away at the age of 63.

The actor died at an undisclosed hospital in Ibadan, Oyo State, after a brief illness.

Pastor Ademola Amusan, also known as Agbala Gabriel, a popular cleric based in Ibadan, announced the actor’s death on his Facebook page.

“It’s a pity, Baba Suebebe died at the hospital this morning. May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace,” Agbala Gabriel wrote.

Suebebe had been under the care of Pastor Amusan in recent months. Last year, the veteran actor made headlines when he reflected on his past, admitting to having led a reckless life in his younger years.

The cleric, known for his philanthropy, had also provided Suebebe with a new home last year.
