The story circulated and the sister of the supposed 'deceased' reached out on social media, to say her sister was very much alive and well. She shared the post below on Instagram:

Omotola however shared an apologetic post on her page, after she was arrested and detained at the Kirikiri maximum prison. See her apology below:

"There is a saying that a depressed person is said to act abnormally for at least 30mins in every 24hrs. I was on the opinion that this was false not until on 13th of October 2016, when i abnormally posted 'Rip' on the picture of one miss deborah aloku and her boyfriend due to a misunderstanding. I am using this medium to admit this information was false and i apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused. Thanks."

One of the sisters of the lady who was assumed dead, said this:

"Remember the lady that posted R.I.P on my sister and her boyfriend's picture? After her arrest and hearing at the court even though it is still in court, she has finally agreed to do a rejoinder after a long time because she was still very stubborn. They say the truth is bitter this lady needs rehab after I met her I knew she needs it. After spending a week and some days in kirikiri now she is begging all around, we forgive you though but let's hear what the judge says."

Na wa o! Is it now by force to die?
