Veteran Nollywood thespian, Joke Silva, wife of veteran actor, Olu Jacobs, has debunked the rumour of his death, saying “he is much alive and doing just fine.”
This is the second time rumours about the death of the legendary Nigerian actor will be making the rounds on social media.
Joke Silva, in her reply to an sms inquiry by a reporter, replied “My husband is alive and doing just fine.”
A close source to the family (name withheld), told journalists that the AGN President, Emeka Rollas, told him that he spoke with the wife today and they spoke for over one hour without any mention of such news.
“Somebody who has lost a husband cannot be that chatty and gail on phone,” the source said.
Also, Betty Irabor, an associate of the familyalso debunked the rumour.
The final nail on the coffin of the rumour was a broadcast by Channels TV where they were seen speaking with the actor who said he is alive and in fact preparing to go to Ikoyi Club this evening (Sunday).
