Nollywood actress Biodun Okeowo has called out her colleagues and social media users for quickly posting about the death of Yoruba actress, Allwell Ademola.
On Saturday night, reports began circulating online that Allwell Ademola had passed away due to alleged heart attack.
Several Nollywood stars, including Damola Olatunji, Mr Latin, Faithia Williams and Bidemi Kosoko, took to their social media pages to mourn her.
However, Biodun Okeowo was clearly not pleased with how fast the news was shared online.
Taking to her Instagram page, the actress revealed that Allwell Ademola’s mother had not yet been informed of her daughter’s death at the time people started posting RIP messages.
In her words, she said:
“Those of you who are so quick to post bad news and put up pictures, hope you know she has a mother who is not aware yet.”
She described the habit of rushing to share bad news as alarming, saying people are now quicker to post death announcements than congratulations.
Biodun wrote that such actions show little consideration for family members who may still be unaware of what has happened.
Her post triggered conversations online, with many agreeing that death announcements should be handled with more sensitivity, especially when close family members are involved.
Allwell Ademola’s reported passing adds to the growing list of Nollywood actors lost this year, a trend that continues to leave fans and colleagues shaken.
