Nollywood veteran, Sidikat Odukanwi, popularly known as Iyabo Oko, has died.

Her colleague, Foluke Daramola confirmed this in a post on her verified Instagram page where she said, “😭😭😭and finally we lost her…😭😭😭 rip Iyabo Oko, we did our best but God knows best.”

Recall that in September last year, the Nollywood veteran had dispelled rumours of her death in an interview with Saturday Beats.

Iyabo Oko had said that, “I am doing fine. I am not dead. I am very much alive. I won’t die (yet); it is not my portion.”

Her daughter, Olamide, had revealed that the veteran was diagnosed with ischaemic stroke about five years ago but chose to keep her health issues away from the public.
