Kolawole Ajeyemi, Toyin Abraham’s Husband, Grieves the Loss of Beloved Dog Castro
Nollywood actor Kolawole Ajeyemi, Toyin Abraham’s husband, is in a state of despair following the death of his cherished dog, Castro. The Yoruba movie actor, who has also featured in films and recently ventured into music with the EP My Life, also spoke about his sadness, so much so that it melted the hearts of fans across Nigeria. Pets are family, and Castro’s death has left a void in Kolawole’s life, as most pet owners would know.
Kolawole, father of two, including his son Ire with actress Toyin Abraham, has maintained a personal life out of the picture, taking care of work and family. But this loss made him come apart, showing a softer side of the actor who’s otherwise colored in rainbow acting roles or cruising around, yelling his name in his Afropop tracks. Friends have flooded social media with posts and tales of their own personal loss of their pets, reminding Kolawole that he is not the only one in his suffering.
Toyin Abraham, a well-known director, has been with her husband during this challenging time, as has been the case for his businesses, such as acting and music. The marriage, which was entered into in 2019, has come under public ridicule in the past but remains intact. Kolawole’s love for Castro was special, and his loss is an indication of how much humans adore their pets.
As Kolawole navigates this loss, his fans come to his defense, sending him condolence messages, and mourning Castro’s life. The grief of the actor tells many something as it touches on the pain that anyone would feel in losing a pet.
