Veteran actor Sadiq Daba who became a household name in Nigeria for his role as Bitrus in the now rested NTA drama series Cock Crow at Dawn, died on Wednesday evening, March 3, after a long battle with Leukemia and prostate cancer.
He reportedly died at his Marwa Garden residence in Alausa, Lagos State.
In 2019, he came out to publicly seek financial assistance for his treatment. Billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola and many other Nigerians rallied around and supported him financially.
Sadly, he lost the battle to the ailment yesterday evening.
May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
