By Adesina Soyooye

Accomplished Actor, Olu Jacobs is alive and doing well.

This is contrary to the news of his passage which made the rounds.

His wife, also, an accomplished actress, Joke Silver, debunked the news of his death, and threatened legal action against the rumour mongers.

Silver took to her Instagram story to issue the statement debunking the passing of her husband, and disclosed that the much celebrated actor is alive and well.

She wrote: “Good day every one.  I trust all is going well. The Jacobs clan would love to inform you that Papa J (Olu Jacobs, MFR), is alive and well; enjoying himself as always in the comfort of his home and loved ones.

“To all those who have decided to ignore our last warning regarding fake news, kindly prepare for legal action.”

This is the second time the story of Jacobs’ death would make the rounds, and the second time his wife would issue a statement to debunk his passing.

Olu Jacobs, 80, is however, according to his beloved wife, a couple of months earlier, suffering suffering from dementia, a condition usually associated with old age.

Both got married in 1989.
