    Madam Grace Owoola Oyin-Adejobi, widely known as ‘Iya Osogbo,’ is a well-known Nigerian actress, producer, and television personality.

    She was born in Osogbo, Osun State’s capital, on August 23, 1930, to a contractor father and a merchant mother.

    Iya Osogbo was the wife of the late Chief Oyin Adejobi, a famous Yoruba actor.

    Iya Osogbo’s nickname was derived from the title of a popular film in which she acted in 1999, “Eran Iya Oshogbo.”

    She began her acting career roughly 67 years ago, and she indicated that she had already made her name before starring in the film “Eran Iya Osogbo,” therefore correcting the public’s perception of her name.

    She has worked with the likes of Orogun Adedigba, Kuye, Kootu Ashipa, and others. She has received national and international recognition, solidifying her place as one of Nigeria’s top actresses.

    Why I stopped acting – Iya Osogbo

    Grace Oyin Adejobi Iya Osogbo
    Veteran Yoruba actress Grace Oyin-Adejobi popularly known as Iya Osogbo has disclosed why she gave up on appearing on screen again as she clocks 90 on Sunday, August 23.

    Iya Osogbo is the widow of the late Yoruba actor Oyin Adejobi who died in 2000.

    During an appearance on a radio magazine program on Space 90.1FM, Parrot Xtra Hour on Radio, anchored by Olayinka Agboola in Ibadan, Oyo State, Iya Osogbo said she started her acting career some 67 years ago.

    She noted that she had already made her name before she acted in the movie Eran Iya Osogbo contrary to beliefs.

    The actress spoke for the first time about the day an excited fan nearly run her car over her in Ibadan.

    She said the experience has remained indelible in her memory.

    The fan eventually came down from her car to let me know that she merely wanted to exchange greetings with me. She later enveloped ten thousand naira and dashed me. Iya Osogbo said

    The veteran actress expressed displeasure over the near-nudity in Nollywood today, advising actresses not to be deceived by the pleasures of the world but to believe they can succeed through hard work and the grace of God.

    Iya Osogbo said she met her late husband Oyin Adejobi in her youthful days. They attended the same school and lived on the same streett.

    She said that apart from the death of her husband, the lowest point in her life was when her fourth child a female died.

    I got to attain this age because of God’s mercy. In addition, the almighty also gave me the wisdom of preserving my body and being moderate in all I have been doing. Our youths should emulate this too. They should learn to be God-fearing too.

    Mummy, you’ll live long to eat your labor. Your style of living is recommenddable. You’re an icon and a legend who has left her footprint 👣 in the soil that will be remembered forever.

    Mummy, continuing enjoyng your old age. We love you passionately and unconditionally.
