Afeez Agoro Oladimeji, better known as Nigeria’s tallest man, passed away at the age of 48 following a protracted illness.
The well-known reality TV personality and actor, who was 7 feet 4 inches tall, had reportedly suffered from chronic hip arthritis and had been ill for months.
After recovering from a hip replacement, Agoro made his final Facebook post on May 28.
He wrote on Facebook: “Thank God Almighty for a successful operation now it’s time for therapy.”
However, Agoro experienced some complications on Wednesday, 14th June, 2023 and had to be taken to the Lagos State Teaching Hospital (LUTH) right away.
Recall that Agoro underwent hip physiotherapy under the care of his personal physician, Dr. Dike.
At Agoro’s home on Community Road in Akoka, funeral arrangements had already started. Also, the Akoka/Bariga community members have begun to send in their tributes.
May his soul continue to rest in peace.
