The family of late Nollywood actress, Temitope Osoba, has recounted her final moments, alleging that she repeatedly expressed fears that she would die on the day she eventually passed away.

Her maternal aunt, Pejuola Ogunesan, made the disclosure during an interview, claiming that Osoba told her at a police station that her fiancé, Prophet Itunu Onadeko, had allegedly said she would die that day.

Pejuola said she and Osoba had been estranged since 2023 after the actress left Evercare Hospital, Lekki, where she was receiving treatment for breast cancer. She said they later reunited after Osoba called to say she was going to die.

Pejuola said the family attempted to take Osoba to a prophetess for prayers, but after finding the church locked, they took her to another church. She said Osoba later stayed with the family but her condition deteriorated. She was taken to hospital and referred to the Ogun State University Teaching Hospital, where she reportedly died shortly after arrival.

Osoba, who featured in several Nollywood productions, died at 40. Her burial is scheduled to take place in Iperu-Remo, Ogun State.
