Nollywood actor Kunle Afod has expressed deep sorrow over the tragic loss of his fellow actress, Aunty Ajara, whose untimely demise has left the entertainment industry in mourning.
As previously reported by Amonpoint News, the beloved actress succumbed to a prolonged illness on Thursday, February 5th. Her passing was followed by a swift Islamic burial, where she was laid to rest in accordance with religious traditions.
Heartbreaking footage from the burial ceremony showed her wrapped in white cloth, placed on a mat, and gently lowered into her final resting place.
Her loved ones have organized an 8-day fidau prayer session scheduled for Thursday, February 2nd, to honor her memory. A circulating poster revealed that the talented actress was only 27 years old at the time of her passing.
Kunle Afod, visibly shaken by the news, shared an emotional tribute, expressing disbelief and vowing that her legacy would endure.
“The pain is still fresh…
Our dearest Ajara may be gone, but her spirit will forever shine in our hearts.
In humble acceptance of Allah’s decree, we invite you to join us for the 8-day fidau prayers for our cherished sister, Lasisi Ajarat Morenikeji, who departed this world on February 5, 2026.
Your prayers will bring solace as we seek divine mercy for her peaceful journey.
May Allah pardon her flaws and grant her eternal bliss in Aljanah Firdaus. Ameen.
Event details are available on the flyer.
We deeply appreciate your kindness and solidarity.”
