Men listening to this man on BBC's "story story" was always a pleasure. He had the best accent of any nigerian artist. |

gistmeloveblog:Growing up then in Lagos was fun, i use to watch him on set(in the program tagged Village Headmaster). Together with the likes of late Gorimakpa, the late Sisi Clara, late councillor Balogun, late Justus Esiri(the headmaster),late Oghene, Kabiyesi, late Eleyimi, Okoro etc. I know that a whole lot of them are dead now. R.I.P to the dead, but where is Okoro? Cos i've not been hearing about him. |

I think he was one of the cast crew of BBC radio story story drama because they always mention Jab Adu at the end of the play, but i don't know the part he played, maybe mr Titus. |

Please stop disgracing this man with the epiphet Nollywood actor. He was far above Nollywood in class and pedigree. They were the grandfathers of Nollywood. |

PoliticalThuG: You must be of the Indomie generation then. He was a very popular actor and I loved watching him in the original Village Headmaster series with others like Melville Obriango (Ogene), Joe Layode, Femi Robinson and co. Then of course there were councilors Balogun and Bamishe, Sisi Clara, Amebo, etc. |

Rest in peace and thanks for the memories. From the Village Headmaster (Chei! Chei! Chei! ) and Adio Family in the 1970s, to Turning Wheel on OGTV in the 1980s and '90s, to the BBC's Story Story, Voices From The Market Place and MNET's Tinsel in the 2000s and 2010s. Adieu. 1 Like 1 Share |

Uncle jab, may your soul rest in perfect peace. May God grant the family you left behind fortitude to bear the loss. You were a very friendly diector on set. You will be missed. Theresa in Adio family. |

BekeeBuAgbara: Yeah, he was Mr Titus. He acted as "Dr" Bassey Okon on the original Village Headmaster series (he owned the pharmacy and Boniface was his assistant) in the 1960s, '70s and early '80s. He was Mr. Adio in Adio Family in the 1970s (Rosemary Anieze-Adams acted as his wife). He also acted as the MD on The Turning Wheel on OGTV in the 1980s (Enebeli Elebuwa played the part of Inspector Ben Alamu). He was Mr Titus on Story Story. And he acted as Fred Ade-Williams' doctor in Tinsel on MNET. He had perfect diction. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

I can hazard a guess that over 70 % of the NL crew don't know him...i.e. he'd been around decades before they were born |
