Moji Afolayan shares mystery behind Ade Love’s death

Nollywood actress, Moji Afolayan, has shared the shocking mystery on the death of her legendary father, Adeyemi Afolayan, popularly known as Ade Love, as the family marks 29 years since his passing.

In an interview, Moji recounted how the late actor and filmmaker suddenly fell ill during a family trip to their hometown in Kwara State during the 1996 Christmas season, despite showing no signs of sickness beforehand.

“My father wasn’t sick before we left Lagos,” she said. “We had gone to our hometown for Christmas, and one of his father’s co-wives was also celebrating an event. It was there that he suddenly became ill.”

She explained that although he was first taken to Ilorin for treatment, Ade Love requested to be moved back to Lagos to see his personal doctor. Tragically, his condition worsened, and he passed away on December 30, 1996.

“He was taken from Ilorin to Lagos. While leaving, he asked his youngest wife to follow him, but she said she wanted to stay back and take care of things. Then he said, ‘What if we don’t meet again?’ We didn’t understand what he meant at the time,” she recalled.

Moji described her father as a kind and selfless man, adding, “I pray that I come through him in my next life. He was good and caring to the core.”
