Bisi Aisha, the daughter of ailing actress Sidikat Odukanwi popularly known as Iyabo Oko has released videos to confirm that her mum is still alive.
There was confusion early on Thursday morning over the reported death of the actress. Bisi had announced Iaybo’s death in an Instagram post on Wednesday night.
“My mum is gone. Rest well mummy. May your soul Rest In Peace mummy,” Bisi wrote.
Bisi, however, returned to Instagram on Thursday, January 6 to say her mother was not dead after all.
In the video she posted, Bisi said that her brother called her to inform her of their mother’s passing, three hours later, the actress came back to life.
“Good morning everyone this is Iyabo Oko’s daughter, Iybo Oko is still alive, my mum is alive, I was the one that posted it yesterday when my senior brother called me that she was confirmed dead and later after three hours she came back to life, so we thank God, she is back to life,” she said.
Actress Foluke Daramola who had also announced her colleagues’ passing, retracted her statement as well.
“Updates on Iyabo Oko. Just heard from her daughter again that she moved her hand that she’s still alive o.
“Hallelujah o she’s alive o. It was her same daughter that announced her death to me before and she was the one that said she’s alive now,” the 43-year-old wrote.
The actress wrote in another post: “Yes she is already in the hospital as we speak. Thank you everyone. We still need your prayers please.”
The actress also shared a screenshot of her conversation with Iyabo Oko’s daughter.
Bisi and Foluke have deleted their earlier posts in which they hastily announced Iyabo Oko’s death.
