Veteran Yoruba actress Iyabo Oko who was declared dead has reportedly come back to life.
The 61-year-old thespian’s daughter Bisi Aisha initially announced her mother’s death in several Instagram posts late on Wednesday night.

She made this known via her Instagram page where she posted a photo of her mother with the caption: “Wonderful being, she moved her hand after been confirmed dead 3hrs ago. God we will forever praise ur HOLY name.”
In the viral video where the movie veteran’s daughter announced her mom’s return to life, she said: “Good morning everyone, this is Iyabo Oko’s daughter. Iyabo Oko is still alive o! My mom is still alive.
“I was the one that posted it yesterday when my senior brother called me that she was confirmed dead. And later after three hours, she came back to life.
“So we thank God for that. We thank God! Look at my eyes, you can see my eyes, I’ve been crying since yesterday. But we thank God she’s back to life.
