"Life Is Unpredictable" – Mr Latin Reflects On 'Ogogo's' Death Hours After Attending Colleague's Birthday Party

Veteran Nollywood actor Bolaji Amusan, popularly known as Mr Latin, has reflected on the unpredictability of life following the death of his colleague Taiwo Hassan 'Ogogo'.

In a post on his Instagram page, he shared how he had attended Segun Ogungbe's 50th birthday on Sunday August 23, 2026, filled with joy and celebration, only to receive the bombshell of Ogogo's passing moments later.

Mr Latin noted that one moment people are celebrating life, and the next they are reminded of how fragile it truly is.

He wrote:
"Life is truly unpredictable. On Sunday, I attended Segun Ogungbe's 50th birthday celebration, full of joy and celebration. A few minutes later, came the bombshell that changed everything. One moment, we are celebrating life; the next, we are reminded of how fragile it truly is. What a life..."

Segun Ogunbe's birthday celebration took place on Sunday, August 23 at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Refreshing your memory, The Nigerian Voice recalls that Ogogo's daughters, Lima and Kira Taiwo, had made an emotional appeal on Instagram last Monday, seeking help for their father's treatment after he was diagnosed with stage-four cancer.

They had revealed that hospitals had refused to treat him and begged for anyone who could provide medical or spiritual assistance. His close friend and colleague,

Yinka Quadri, had also been deeply affected by his illness, staying in constant contact with the family and offering support.

'Ogogo' passed away on Sunday, August 23 at 3:00 pm at the age of 66, according to a statement issued by his colleague, Jide Kosoko. He was buried on Monday in his hometown of Ilaro, Ogun State, following Islamic rites.

His death has since sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, with colleagues and fans paying tribute to the veteran actor.
