“But we are a family in Nollywood; despite open spats. The bond artistes share is more than bloodlines. And for that, we must stand and share with our friend…Ibinabo….you will pull through this. You are a strong woman. A rare breed. You will be ok. And your friends will not abandon you. We will help you find your silver lining in all of this,” he wrote.

It is difficult to let go but we are all prone to making dreadful mistakes. I pray God almighty give this family the succour to carry on and release the pain in their heart on this sad event. Let them look into this through the eyes of the Lord. It’ll hard but the power to do so is in their hands. Pleased forgive. Because the freedom of the heart is gained through forgiveness. May God be with us all.”
