Joke Silva addressed the rumors directly, responding to an SMS inquiry from a Vanguard reporter with a clear statement: "My husband is alive and doing just fine." This confirmation puts to rest the unfounded speculations that have been circulating online.

The source noted, "Someone who has lost a husband cannot be that chatty and cheerful on the phone."
In addition, family associate Betty Irabor has also debunked the rumors, adding another layer of assurance for fans concerned about Olu Jacobs' well-being.
It is unfortunate that such rumors continue to spread, causing unnecessary distress. However, the clear messages from those close to the actor confirm that Olu Jacobs is very much alive and in good spirits.
