Some of her
colleagues who spoke with the Don. Voice, disclosed that plans were
being made by some of
her colleagues to raise money for her on Tuesday
when they converge on LTV 8 Ikeja for their meeting.
The actress,
who some of her colleagues described as an easy-going person, who did
not like to be noticed was said to be responding to treatment at UCH few
weeks back, but her condition relapsed two weeks ago when her sister,
Bunmi, raised the alarm about Bisi’s deteriorating health condition.
Bisi was said to have been moved out of the hospital three weeks ago to
an undisclosed church, buthad to be rushed back when it was obvious her
condition had gone worse. She was said to have taken about 40 units of
blood before she finally died on Tuesday morning.
Unconfirmed
reports had it that Bisi was few weeks pregnant when the sickness

“Her
pregnancy was aborted at the hospital. I don’t want to comment more on
that, but that is the truth. I learnt they had to do itto save her life
when it appeared she might lose it eventually,” said the source.
The source also said Bisi was secretly engaged to an Epe-born man.
Confirming Bisi’s death to the Don.Voice at Bisi’s family house at Soka
in Ibadan, on Tuesday afternoon, nollywood actor who is very close to
Bisi’s family, Yinka Quadri, said Bisi called to tell him about her
sickness few days to the Ileya festival, saying that he was still
shocked to hear that she had died. “I was informed few days to Ileya,
but I didn’t hear from her again until two weeks ago when her elder
sister, Bukky, called my phone to tell me that Bisi was terribly
indisposed and that she needed some units of blood to survive. I was in
Ibadan last week Sunday to see her and she was actually looking good on
Wednesday when I came back to check her again. We even joked asI left
for Lagos that afternoon after spending about 7hrs with her in the
hospital. I was shocked when I received the news of her death”.
Don.
Voice also gathered that Bisi stayed with her aunt in Ibadan during the
period of her sickness and was said to have lost her mother about five
years ago. While reacting to Bisi’s demise, her aunt said she was yet to
come to terms with the fact that Bisi was dead and had been deposited
at the morgue. “I have lost a beautiful girl. I have lost a star that we
are all looking up to in the family. Everybody loved her because of her
simple lifestyle. Shegave me a pink gown few days back that I should
wear it today (Tuesday), but I never knew she was telling me she was
going to die. I don’t believe she’s dead. I know she can still be raised
from the dead,” she said.
Bisi’s sister, Bukky, was also pensive as
tears rolled down her face uncontrollably. She said she was with her
before she died; saying Bisi never gave up even at the point of death.
“I was with her and I never believed she was going to die, I had gone to
several churches to pray and I was told that she won’t die. It is
painful because she died with many unfulfilled dreams. It is more
painful because she died without any child.”
According to Bisi’s
aunt’s husband, who gave his name as Daddy Pelumi, the late actress
would be buried on Friday, January 4 after the necessary burial
arrangements hadbeen concluded. “Her father attends a catholic church
and he has told us that she would be given a proper burial at the
Catholic Church, Oke Padre, Salvation Army way, Ibadan”
The actress was survived by her father, grandmother and siblings.
