Popular Yoruba comic actor Bolaji Amusan, otherwise known as Mr Latin, has debunked rumours of his own death.
As the news of his alleged death spread via social network Twitter, Amusan responded with ‘Are u stupid?‘ to this condolence message: ‘@rdeye2002: RIP to the best comedian @Mr_Latin ..May ur Soul rest in Perfect Peace..so sad‘.
The above Tweet generated fear amongst his numerous fans, prompting them to ask for more ‘tweet confirmations’.
Meanwhile, other followers of the actor tried to clear up the rumours: ‘Sometimes i wonder how the rumours starts and then it is everywhere,Mr Latin is fine and he is not even sick‘
‘Mr_Latin is not dead o, he is very much alive, I saw him today, also Amb Oladunjoye called him to confirm, stop d rumour.’
Shortly after, the comedian finally tweeted ‘I’m alive. Please stop this rumour. I’m not dying Mo ku ti‘, bringing relief to those concerned.
