Olu Jacobs Has Dementia – Wife, Joke Silva Reveals Actor's Health Condition by lalasticlala(mod): 1:30pm On Nov 20, 2021
Veteran actress, Joke Silva has publicly spoken about the state of her husband, Olu Jacobs’ health.

Recall that there were rumors that the veteran actor was ill after pictures of him went viral on social media.

The actress in an interview with Chude Jideonwo has revealed that Olu Jacobs has dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).

According to her, “This has been going on for a couple of years. My husband is dealing with issues and it is been going on for a couple of years. It is known as dementia with Lewy Body.

“It is a degenerative disease that affects the brain and it is almost like a Parkinson type of disease, it affects the brain and affects the person.

She expressed that it’s been hard on her husband because he doesn’t understand what is going on and also on family members as well.

“We have gone through it over the past couple of years but we thank God.

“We have gone through some times and situations recently that I wish I had the old you here so I don’t battle these times on my own but we are grateful for the moment of clarity. I miss the times we worked together.”

The public already killed him long ago with rumors about his death . All that is left now is his funeral and burial arrangements
Re: Olu Jacobs Has Dementia – Wife, Joke Silva Reveals Actor's Health Condition by Nobody:
Alzheimer's disease, dementia or Parkinson's disease affects 3 million Americans annually despite their healthcare delivery system. I don't know the statistics in Nigeria because it isn't recorded.

Bill Gates is committed to finding the best possible solution for these diseases that attack when grandparents retire from labour and intend to spend quality time with their children and grandchildren. I think this disease killed Gates, the senior, and the father of the richest man in the world wouldn't die if money could treat dementia.

These category of diseases is better prevented than cured.

Dementia is a disease that is usually managed. In developed countries there are dementia care homes.

Those facilities are lacking in Nigeria which makes men that suffer from Dementia to be at the mercy of their wives.

Why am I saying all these?

I'm advising bachelors eligible for marriage to avoid evening newspapers at all cost. grin


Marry a woman that is at least 10 years younger than you so that if this disease sets in both of you would not suffer it together because women are more likely to suffer dementia than men.

Also, since there are no care homes in Nigeria, your survival depends on the willingness of your wife to take care of you since your children will be taking care of their own families.

Jacob's survival today is because he married a "very good" woman he is 19 years older than who is taking care of him .

Life is indeed unpredictably unfair.
One demon nearly blinded my left eye at Ikoyi on Wednesday. We were walking in opposite directions when he suddenly stopped, turned around and flung his walking stick as though he was the only one that plies that road. Unfortunately, his stick caught my left eye, and before I could recover myself, he was already gone. Who sent this guy this early morning?
I ended up spending thousands of hard-earned Nigerian naira.

Olu Jacobs the legend, God will facilitate your recovery.

Awwnn.. no wonder. The last time I viewed this pics, I immediately knew something was not right with him. I mean.. the usual lively Olu Jacobs to be standing and looking like that speaks volume of his mental state.

Recoveries in Jesus name.

Re: Olu Jacobs Has Dementia – Wife, Joke Silva Reveals Actor's Health Condition by IMASTEX: 1:45pm On Nov 20, 2021
Hmm. Likely age related. Good the family is managing him well, and brave enough to speak out so bloggers wouldn't make a matter out of it.

Meanwhile, there is one I know currently ruling the "giant" of Africa.
