Ambassador Segun Olusola, Creator Of "Village Headmaster", Dies At 77

The television playwright, seasoned broadcaster, diplomat and founder of African refugees died yesterday after a brief illness. 
The former ambassador to Ethiopia was producer and director of the epic programme Village Headmaster. It was one of most popular television sitcoms in the 70s and early 80s that ran for over a decade before it was taken off the air.  And not too long ago, his footages at public forums were still being shown on national TV across the country.

Mr. Olusola is survived by his wife, Beatrice Fehintola Olusola, his children – Ms. Aderonke Ajibulu-Moniya, Mr. Jimi Olusola III, Ms. Toyin Laditi, Mr. Sabitu Olusola, Ms. Toyin Adejumo, Mr. Samuel Olusola – and his immediate younger sister, Mrs. Biodun Kehinde.

May his soul rest in perfect peace (AMEN).
