Betty Irabor, the founder of Genevieve Magazine, has dispelled rumours circulating on social media that veteran actor Olu Jacobs has passed away.
Jacobs, who has been battling dementia, is indeed alive and well, contrary to reports of his demise at the age of 81, according to Betty.
Irabor tweeted: “Olu Jacobs is well and alive. Please ignore all rumours of his passing.”
Speaking last year, his wife, Joke Silva, said Jacob’s ailment had brought significant changes in her man.
She said: “It hasn’t been easy. There was a point of acceptance for me that everything happening is reality and it is like the person I married, 80 percent of the time is no longer there.”
