Tuesday night came with rumours on twitter. The death of Nollywood veteran Olu Jacobs was spreading like wildfire.

Luckily, a wise Nollywood actress, Lala Akindoju-Fregene, took the bull by the horn. She took to her twitter page to warn all those spreading false information.

She had spoken with Olu Jacobs, and could confidently confirm he is well and sound.

Uncle Olu Jacobs is alive and well. Very much so

I just got off the phone with him. Please stop spreading fake news

We wish you many more happy years ahead.
