Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo has revealed that her late mother passed away at the age of 69 and not 67 as earlier claimed.

Taking to social media, Iyabo Ojo said that her mother gave them a younger age just because she didn’t want them to know that she was older than their dad.

The actress pointed out that her action may be the reason why she always insisted on not celebrating her birthday.

“O my sweet mother even in your death you made me laugh so hard this morning. I just found out from her siblings that she was 69 years old and not 67, as she always claimed. She didn’t want us to know she was older than my late dad who would have been 68! she could have claimed his age at least but no, she wanted us to believe she was much younger hence the 2 years gap. Gosh! No wonder she never wanted any birthday party. Can’t wrap my head around the fact that she is gone. I love you too much mama, Continue to rest on.”
