Revealed! How Primate Ayodele Gave Deceased Actor ‘Agbako’ N100K Monthly Till His Death—-In as much as veteran actor, Charles Olumo popularly known as Agbako died at a very old age yesterday, Primate Ayodele is one of those who are not happy that the thespian who graced our screen for decades is no more.

In as much as veteran actor, Charles Olumo popularly known as Agbako died at a very old age yesterday, Primate Ayodele is one of those who are not happy that the thespian who graced our screen for decades is no more.

The Nigerian prophet who leads the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church has always shown his love for Nollywood practitioners, and this is evident in his several addresses to them. He invites them to his church programmes, supports them financially, prays for them, and seeks more support for them.

Due to his love for Nollywood and respect for the industry’s veterans, Primate Ayodele decided to offer the oldest actor, Charles Olumo, who died yesterday, a lifetime salary of N100,000 monthly starting in July 2023.

The prophet made this announcement at an event held by the Nollywood body TAMPAN to celebrate Charles Olumo’s 100th birthday in Abeokuta. At the event, the Nollywood body also made Primate Ayodele its life patron.

At the event, Primate Ayodele instantly gave the veteran a cheque of N500,000 and promised to place him on a monthly salary of N100,000 till his maker calls him home. Asides that, Primate Ayodele called on the Nollywood body to organize a foundation that would cater for old veterans where he would be able to support them financially.

These were his words:

“I appreciate this group for recognizing me, state national and president. I appreciate your service to the country. I appreciate this group for recognizing me, the state national, and the president. I appreciate your service to the country.

“By God’s grace, I will donate the sum of N500,000 to veteran actor, Charles Oluomo and place him on a monthly salary of 100k till his maker calls him home. Also, I will donate N500,000 to the association for this laudable event.

“I want you to come up with a foundation for the old veterans in the industry and include me in it. They don’t have to become beggars before they feed. This foundation will be responsible for their well-being and God’s willing, I will contribute my quota to it.’’

Primate Ayodele’s announcement to place the veteran actor on salary is what others do too but fulfilling the promise is what they fail to do. Many times, this kind of announcement ends immediately when the microphone is dropped but for Primate Ayodele, he ensured the actor gets what he promised him every month since he made the announcement.

May the soul of Charles Olumo rest in perfect peace.
