Nollywood actress Ronke Oshodi Oke has criticised Itunu Onadeko, the partner of late actress Temitope Osoba, over his claims about their relationship and the circumstances surrounding Osoba’s death.
Naija Brain reports that Osoba, who had been battling breast cancer after undergoing surgery in November 2024, died on August 4, 2026, following nearly two years of treatment.
Following her death, Onadeko reportedly made claims about Osoba’s health, including allegations that she used hard drugs. He also claimed that the actress died at a police station in Ikorodu, Lagos State.
Reacting in a statement shared on her Instagram page, Oshodi Oke questioned why Onadeko allegedly remained in a relationship with Osoba for about two years if he was aware of the alleged drug use.
The actress also questioned why the relationship reportedly lasted for such a long period without a formal family introduction or marriage.
Oshodi Oke further raised concerns over reports that Osoba was allegedly asked to leave Onadeko’s home after funds raised publicly for her medical treatment had been exhausted.
She alleged that Osoba received millions of naira in donations during her battle with cancer but was later asked to leave when the money was no longer available.
According to Oshodi Oke, the circumstances raised questions about what transpired between Osoba and her partner throughout her period of treatment.
She wrote: “That her fiancé is a devil in disguise. You called yourself a priest, and you allowed a girl you weren’t married to stay with you for two years. For those two years, you didn’t know her family? Where in the Bible is it written? No introduction, no wedding, how?
“She still had millions in her account from the donations, so when the money finished, you told her to pack out and told her to pretend that you both had never been dating. What sort of pretence is that?
“She was with you for two years and was smoking. Within three months, didn’t you notice? Why didn’t you send her away? Because it isn’t possible to have hidden it for over two years.”
