Actor Muyiwa Ademola has explained why he could not attend the funeral of his cousin, Allwell Ademola, in Lagos.
Sharing a photo of her burial site on Instagram, Muyiwa wrote:
“It’s a final Goodbye Couz. The saddest part is my not being in the country to witness your final journey back home. Your death is just another painful reminder that tomorrow is never promised. Each day we live is deducted from the days we would live on earth, each birthday we celebrate takes us closer to our final birthday. May we live long, amen.
“Sun re o Omo Oba EniObanke Ademola, bami ki baba mi Awofe Ademola, ki Uncle Adetokunbo Ademola… o digba o! O di gbere!”
Allwell Ademola died on December 27, 2025, reportedly from a heart attack at her Lagos home. She was 49 years old.
Her final rites began with a Service of Songs and candlelight procession on January 8, 2026, at Lagos State Television (LTV 8) in Ikeja, where colleagues, friends, and fans paid tribute.
She was laid to rest the following day at Atan Cemetery, Yaba, Lagos, with mourners dressed in white shirts and jeans, as requested by her family.
