The mother of three shared a video of herself on Instagram on Tuesday with the caption, “I’m passing through depression right now only those close to me will understand I have suffered a lot I can’t wait for God to answer my prayers my children are the only happiness I have 😭💔 (depression is real).”
Before the post, Stella shared a photo of her late son, revealing that he died 13 years ago after being poisoned.
She wrote, “😭😭😭 13 years ago my first son passed away 😭😭 today supposed to be he’s 16th birthday after they kidnapped me and him my son did not survive I have suffered a lot, we went to the village that’s where they poisoned him we rush him to LUTH they neglected him by saying they don’t have light to test the blood they will give him that’s how my son died in my presence Mandela God will fight for you 😭😭😭 happy posthumous birthday son💔💔💔💔.”
Mr Ibu, who battled an illness for several months, died on March 2, 2024. Before his death, the actor underwent multiple surgeries, including a leg amputation.
