Deyemi Okanlawon Raises Alarm Over High Rate of People ‘Slumping & Dying’

Deyemi Okanlawon, a star in Nollywood, has drawn attention with his comments on the rising number of people collapsing and dying.

His remarks follow the tragic deaths of Nigerian music icon Onyeka Onwenu and Yoruba vlogger Afobaje, both of whom collapsed and passed away.

Onyeka Onwenu died after collapsing during a performance at a friend’s 80th birthday party, while Afobaje, whose real name was Abimbola Ali, died while playing football in Ikeja.

Both were taken to the hospital, but efforts to save them were unsuccessful. In light of these events, Deyemi tweeted about the situation.

He mentioned that he has heard of five different cases of people collapsing and dying in just the past week. The actor questioned whether proper investigations and autopsies are being carried out.

Deyemi tweeted: “The rate at which ppl are just slumping and dying… I heard of about 5 in the last few weeks. Forgive my paranoia but I wonder if any proper autopsies and investigations are being done cos most of took those vaccs!”
