Sometime in 2012, the Nollywood actor, who starred in numerous movies, was accused of allegedly murdering his wife. He was immediately incarcerated for the death of his wife, and it’s rather unfortunate that he has finally joined her on the other side of life.

According to news reports at the time, Oganiru was arrested following a petition by family and relations of his late wife who claimed that she was poisoned by the actor so that he could acquire her wealth.

Oganiru has since maintained his innocence and said on numerous occasions that he never killed his multimillionaire wife.
