Nollywood Actor, Jim Iyke Esomugha is currently grieving over the
loss of his mum, Mrs. Esomugha, who passed away on Monday, 30th of
March, 2014.
“Yes, Jim Iyke’s mother is dead, but she didn’t die on April 1 as it
is being widely reported. The old woman died last Monday in Abuja,” a
close family told Dailypost.
Also speaking with DailyPost, United Nations’ Youth Ambassador, David
James Egwu said it’s true that Jim’s mum has passed on, but we are yet
to establish contact with Jim.” Egwu is one of Jim’s closest friends in
Abuja.
Dailypost gathered that the late Mrs. Esomugha had been having
serious health challenges for some time, before she passed away at Garki
Hospital, Abuja.
“She died of stroke. The woman has been sick for some time now and
has been staying with Jim Iyke in Abuja,” the source disclosed.
The sad news is coming weeks after Jim proposed to his BFF and ‘lover’ Nadia Buari in London.
Until her death, Jim’s late mother lived in Abuja with other members of her family.
