Pa Olu Jacobs, May your gentle soul rest in peace π️. Thanks for the impact you made in the movie industry
ReplyDeleteWoops! Baba RIP
ReplyDeleteRest in peace Sir Olu Jacobs.
ReplyDeleteOh my God!!!!!!! Kai!!
ReplyDeleteMay his gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Oh God, comfort his family.
We have lost a great man! π
A great man indeed π₯Ί He is a rare bred, a gentleman and great father & husband π
DeleteLegend Olu Jacobs, I will miss you!
DeleteMay Christ receive your soul in His eternal light and comfort your wife Aunty Joke Silva, and your children. ππΏ✨️π
Rest in peace sir.
ReplyDeleteI thought about him yesterday and had that premonition. I knew it was just a matter of time. I've noticed that once there's a rumour of a known figure passing away, followed by the family debunking it, it doesn't take long before it becomes reality.
ReplyDeleteI wish the family and all his loved ones comfort at this time. May his soul find rest.
