According to reports, he apparently committed suicide by jumping from the 15th floor of the Nines hotel at 525 S.W downtown Portland rooftop restaurant on Monday, 29th April evening.
If you can’t remember him, just think back on one of the first adverts MTN made.”Shy Guy” It was set in a university campus scene ‘where a guy helped his friend hook up a girl by sitting next to her and when his phone rang, Yinka handed the phone to her, When his friend did his thing, she said, I thought u’d never ask ‘?’
Yinka is the guy with colored hair who tried to hook his friend up with the girl.
He attended Unilag and he was quite a popular student.
He recorded a song No woman no cry on YouTube before he left Nigeria and he was quite good. He didn’t pursue the music industry though.
He was a model and a very good online personality in Nigeria
Yinka is survived by his father, his brothers and also his daughter Feyisola Elizabeth (10 months old).
Nobody knows his motive for the suicide yet.
May his soul rest in peace.
