Rachel Oniga Died From Heart Disease Not COVID-19 - Family Releases Statement by damilola4162(m): 9:37pm On Jul 31, 2021
The family of Rachel Oniga, veteran Nollywood actress who passed away today July 31, have denied media reports claiming she died from COVID19, Newspremises reports.

In a statement released by her sister, Deaconess Toyin Odusote, the family said the actress died from a heart-related ailment that she battled within a short period of time.

Read the statement below:

An Official Statement on the passing of Chief. Rachel Tabuno Oniga

With a heavy heart and total submission to God, we write to announce the passing unto glory of our beloved sister, mother and grandmother; Chief. Rachel Tabuno Oniga. She died in a Lagos hospital at the age of 64, on Friday, 30th of July 2021, at about 10pm.

Contrary to diverse reports informing that she died from COVID-19 complications, we write to inform the general public that she died from a heart related issue; an ailment she battled with for a short period before her demise.

We accept her sudden transition as God's design and we see it as a function of a race of life well finished. Painful as it may be, we accept it in good faith and total submission to her maker.

We therefore desire to be allowed to mourn her death privately for now, as we do this with deep sense of respect for her soul and the glorious life she lived.

Burial arrangements will be announced in due cause. We appreciate the calls, messages and condolences expressed by everyone and we pray for a sweet repose of her beautiful soul.
Please accept this release as the only authentic one on behalf of the family until we come up with another.
Thank you.

Deaconess Toyin Odusote (Sister) For the family

cry cry cry cry

Whatever we have is given to us by God, be it wealth, wife, husband, children etc.
And if it got taken away by God, all we can do is give God glory for actually giving us the privilege to enjoy that wealth or kids temporarily, and it is not for us to complain, blame and question God.

This is so emotional and so sad.
Those words above brought tears to the eyes of all of us @[/b].

From all of us @[b] : May Racheal Oniga's Soul Rest in Perfect Peace with the Lord.

She was a good woman.
She lived a good life.
She made us all smile and entertained.


One day, we all gonna die!

Yes I am.....whether she died of covid or car accident who actually cares?

Death is death.

Foolish family releasing statement - who is the woman self?

Who she epp?
Just imagine!
A thread a family mourning the death of their mother, sister, aunt, daughter?!
It doesn't matter to you if she dies or not?
We pray this will never be your portion in life.
People dey ooo.

Where is your empathy for crying out loud?
Why not keep shut if you don't have anything reasonable or sensible to type?
Some of you never reason before typing jargons on social media sha.
We pity you and your likes.
We pray you live as old as her first born.
This is the kinda members that some people worship here,
Anyone that is able to type all manner of rubbish and blasphemy, becomes a tin god to some here.
They worship such soul with their likes and shares.
Wasted generation.
Spits!
Just because you have one palasa phone do not give you the right to be so mean.
Better think twice before your mouth/fingers put you in deep sh#t before God.

Advice from the elders.

We Rise.
