Popular Nigerian actors, Yinka Quadri and Taiwo ‘Ogogo’ Hassan, seem to have reconciled after years of fighting.
The actors ended their years-long rift at the housewarming and birthday party of Yomi Fabiyi, another Yoruba actor, in Abeokuta, Ogun state.
The star-studded event witnessed the attendance of actors such as Baba Wande, Ladi Folarin, Iya Rainbow, Shola Kosoko, Toyosi Adesanya, and Peju Ajiboye.
In the now-viral video, Sulaiman Ajobiewe, the chanter, urged the actors to bury the hatchet regardless of who was at fault.
“I pray God’s mercy upon you both. Whatever the issue, let it end here. We cannot live without occasionally offending one another,” he chanted in Yoruba language.
“I implore you, in the name of God, embrace each other and let this be the end of it. I plead with you using my parents’ names to put this matter to rest. Let’s forgive and forget for the sake of God.”
Moments later, Quadri and Hassan could be seen hugging each other as Yinka sprayed money on the peacemaker.

The actors were once close allies. Their friendship, however, hit the rock many years ago — with the cause of the feud yet to be known.
The rift became obvious when Quadri failed to attend Ogogo’s daughter’s wedding and naming ceremonies.
