Veteran Nollywood Actor Victor Olaotan Is Dead
Popula Nollywood actor and former Tinsel’ star, Victor Olaotan, is died.
His demise was confirmed on Friday by his wife, Julia Olaotan.
His wife has relentlessly sought support for the actor, who died on Thursday night in Lagos State.
She appreciated donors for helping her husband while battling for his life in a Turkish hospital.
“Victor Olaotan has passed on, I don’t take the help rendered us for granted. Sadly, Olaotan had to come back to Nigeria because we could no more raise the money to continue treatment, so the hospital sent him back. I’m grateful for my husband’s life and I know all is well”
The veteran actor had celebrated his 69th birthday on Wednesday, February 17, 2021, in a Turkish hospital battling with the effects of a traumatic brain injury he suffered after the ghastly car accident in October 2016.
Recall that Julia and some other ace actors had been soliciting support on Olaotan’s behalf.
In 2019, billionaire businessman and philanthropist, Femi Otedola, donated N30m to the actor.
