Former Nigerian Model, Yinka Olonode, Commits Suicide In The US

According to reports, he apparently committed suicide by jumping from the 15th floor of the Nines hotel at 525 S.W downtown Portland rooftop restaurant on Monday, 29th April evening.

If you can't remember him, just think back on one of the first adverts MTN made. It was set in a university campus scene where a guy was asking a girl out and she said 'what part of NO don't you understand, is it the N or the O?'

One of the guys in that advert was Yinka Olonode. He attended Unilag and he was quite a popular student.

He recorded a song No woman no cry on YouTube before he left Nigeria and he was quite good. He didn't pursue the music industry though.

He was a model and a very good online personality in Nigeria. I don't know whether or not he was married but I know he had a daughter named, Feyisola Elizabeth

Nobody knows his motive for the suicide yet.

May his soul rest in peace and may God look after his young child.
