Do you remember that red-haired guy who featured in the early 2000′s MTN commercial…who helped his friend to hook up with a girl? That’s Yinka Olonode.
According to Oregon, USA police report, an unidentified man jumped from the rooftop restaurant of The Nines Hotel at 525 S.W. Morrison Street, in downtown Portland, on Monday April 29th. The dead man was later identified by the Multnomah County Medical’s Examiner’s Office as Yinka Olonode.
Portland Police Bureau spokesman said 34-year-old Yinka, jumped from the hotel building’s 15th floor around 6:30pm that Monday evening. No foul play is suspected but the death is still under investigation.
If indeed Yinka committed suicide, it is not yet clear why he did it.
Yinka worked as a model in Nigeria in the early 2000s. He also had a brief stint with Rhythm FM before relocating to the US in 2003.
May his soul rest in peace.
