The Men of Oz:

 Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje 

Prisoner #93A234 

Simon Adebisi

 Prisoner #93A234. 

Convicted May 2, 1993 - Murder in the first degree. 

Sentence: Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

Simon Adebisi is serving a life sentence without parole for beheading an undercover cop with a machete. An extremely muscular man, he can physically intimidate many of his fellow inmates. As one of the leaders of the Homeboys (The Black Gang in Oz), Adebisi is considered one of the prison's most dangerous inmates, and becomes one of the most recognizable characters on the show. He is well known for his trademark tilted hat, which Akinnuoye-Agbaje suggested was inspired by the "Area Boys" of Lagos, Nigeria.

Adebisi is of Nigerian - specifically Yoruba descent - and speaks with a strong accent, but had been in America for about 15 years prior to his incarceration. Despite being portrayed as short-tempered and hedonistic, Adebisi later is shown to be capable of engineering and executing long-term plans through intellect and manipulation.
