Veteran Yoruba actor, Kamal Adebayo, popularly known as Sir Kay, is dead.
The deceased is also the father of popular skit maker, Abidemi Adebayo, popularly known as Isbae U.
The actor’s passing was reported on Tuesday by Musiliu Akinsanya, better known as MC Oluomo, the chairman of the Lagos State Parks and Garages Management Committee.
MC Oluomo wrote,
“It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of Alhaji Kamal Adebayo (Sir Kay). May Allah grant him eternal rest. RIP Sir Kay.”
Following the announcement, other Yoruba actors and actresses have mourned the deceased on their Instagram pages.
