The Association of Nigerian Theatre Arts Practitioners shut down death rumors about legendary Yoruba actor Olalere OsunPaimo after Facebook posts claimed the cultural icon had died. National PRO Adejonwo Oluwafemi said the group checked directly with Lere Paimo's wife and confirmed the veteran performer is alive and healthy. The association called out shady people spreading fake news and told everyone to stop sharing unverified claims on social media.
Lere Paimo goes by Baba Eda Onile Ola in the Nigerian theater and film world. The ANTP thanked fans for their concern but warned the public to fact-check before posting anything online.
