Nollywood Actor, Baba Ijesha Loses Father

James Akin Omiyinka, the father of actor, James Olanrewaju Omiyinka popularly known as Baba Ijesha, is dead.

He passed on at the age of 95.

This was announced on Saturday, in an Instagram post by actor Yomi Fabiyi.

Fabiyi prayed that the spirit of the deceased will not leave his son Baba Ijesha stressing that he lived a good life.

Also, praying for those behind the misfortune of Baba Ijesha, Yomi said: “Accept my condolences BABA IJESHA on the death of your father. May the spirit of your father never depart you, he will fight for you someday. Baba lived a good life.

“I pray for the souls of all those who AMBUSHED YOU INTO THIS MISFORTUNE, and used your profession to lure you into acting with an opposite sex they invariably gave a “football age” so you can be sent to prison.

“We will continue to pray with you and hope that the integrity of the judiciary will be restored in this matter someday. Take heart senior man.”

Recall that an Ikeja Special Offences Court had in July 2022 sentenced Baba Ijesha to 16 years imprisonment for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old minor.
