Nollywood actress, Bisi Ibidapo-Obe was more than a friend to
the late actress Moji Olaiya who died on Thursday May 18, 2017 in
Ontario Canada.

Moji and Bisi shared a good bond in the movie industry and were
neighbours in Magodo, Lagos for a while. They were more of family
friends whose relatives all knew one another.
They were very close and always at each other’s place if any had any
party to do. More of an organizer, Moji stood by Bisi when she had her
love child for Senator Dino Melaye and ignored whatever people said in
the movie industry especially from the camp of actress Lola Alao, who
decided making it a messy media war when Bisi got pregnant for Dino.
Always checking on each other’s welfare, it was a surprise when Bisi
had her grand 40th birthday party in January 2017 and Moji was absent.
That was when some of their friends and colleagues knew she had
travelled abroad to be delivered of her baby.
Obviously, Bisi is pained. Maybe she just could muster courage to
write a tribute for her friend today and started sharing photos of them
together at functions and a throwback of their younger days.
