It was gathered that the actor died on Tuesday evening after a protracted illness. The Ekiti-born actor rose to prominence during the 80s and late 90s for his famed herbalist character. Some reports stated that the actor had a long battle with kidney-related ailments, among other issues.

Arowosafe was born on September 15, 1957, in Igbara Odo, Ekiti, and became a household name during the cinematic era for his antagonistic roles in Yoruba movies, accompanied by his ever-vibrant recitation of chants and incantations.

Fadeyi was one of the best on-screen villains in the Yoruba movie industry, known for his darkened face and use of guns to settle disputes.
