Yinka Quadri at Ogogo's Fidau prayer
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that grief hit differently for actor Yinka Quadri when he stepped up to honour his close friend Ogogo during the actor's Fidau prayer held in Ilaro, Ogun state.
Quadri, who shared a deep bond with Ogogo, took the podium to deliver what was meant to be a message of comfort to the family the veteran actor left behind.
In his speech, he urged those mourning to place their trust in God rather than seek strength from other people during this difficult period.
