The fiancé of late Nollywood actress Temitope Osoba, Prophet Itunu Onadeko, has made a startling claim that the actress died at a police station in Ikorodu, Lagos. In a recent interview, Onadeko insisted that her previous battle with breast cancer was not the cause of her death and dismissed rumours of poisoning or maltreatment.
Midnight Call Revealed Death Location
According to Onadeko, he received a midnight call from an unidentified person informing him that Osoba had died at a police station. However, he did not specify the exact station. This revelation contradicts earlier reports that she died at a hospital or home.
The actress, who was 40 at the time of her death, had publicly shared her struggle with breast cancer and treatment. Despite this, Onadeko firmly stated that cancer was not responsible for her demise.
Denial of Rumours and Allegations
Onadeko also denied allegations that money donated for her cancer treatment was diverted. He dismissed claims that she was prevented from driving, noting that she drove herself to Iperu shortly before her death. Furthermore, he refuted disturbing allegations of mistreatment, including being punished with faeces or urine.
These statements come amidst widespread speculation and public interest in the circumstances surrounding the actress's untimely death. The Lagos State Police Command has not yet issued an official statement regarding the claim.
Impact on Fans and Nollywood Community
The news has shocked fans and colleagues in the Nigerian film industry, who remember Osoba for her talent and courage in battling cancer. Many have taken to social media to express condolences and demand a thorough investigation into the true cause and circumstances of her death.
As the story develops, questions remain about the exact police station and the events leading up to her death. The public awaits further clarification from authorities and family members.
