Her guild, the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN), released a statement detailing her final moments, noting she had complained of difficulty breathing. Initial reports suggest the cause was cardiac arrest.
In the wake of this tragedy, a social media user shared a personal encounter that shifted the spotlight. The user recounted meeting Foluke Daramola and observing that the actress appeared to struggle for breath while walking. This observation, posted online, was framed as a heartfelt plea for Daramola to pay closer attention to her health.

Reactions to the public health intervention were varied. Some users questioned the timing, while others defended the need for candid counsel.
