Nollywood actor, Richard Abiodun Ayoyinka, also known as Papa Ajasco, has debunked reports claiming he is dead. He came out to clarify, this following the death of Femi Ogunrombi, who started playing the role from 2006. Abiodun was replaced in 2006 due to some disagreement with Wale Adenuga.

The death of Ogunrombi created confusion as some media outfits were portraying Abiodun’s pictures to illustrate their reports rather than late Ogunrombi’s pictures. Recall that Nollywood Times clarified in her report that the public should not confuse both actors.

As a result of the foregoing, Ayoyinka released a video to show his fans that he is still alive.

Papa Ajasco and Company (formerly The Ajasco Family) is a Nigerian family television sitcom created by Wale Adenuga in 1996.

Papa Ajasco in the comedy show is known as a womanizing bald-headed husband, who often hits his head with his hands when astonished by an event.

Ayoyinka started playing the Papa Ajasco character under Wale Adenuga’s blessings but abdicated for Ogunrombi, who played the role for two years.

Years later, Ogunrombi, in an interview, said fans connected more with Ayoyinka, and he was asked by Wale Adenuga to forfeit the role to the original actor for commercial reasons.

He further thanked his fans for their concerns.

Ayoyinka ended the video with his usual signature in the popular longest-running series by Wale Adenuga Production (WAP).
