Tunde, son to the late Kwara Falcons Basketball Club Technical Director , Steve Onishola, told the News Agency of Nigeria on Tuesday in Ilorin that the multiple deaths were “just a coincidence.”

He said neither his father Steve; Orisabunmi and his younger sister, Janet Ademola died of COVID – 19 related circumstance.

NAN recalls that Onishola died in Ilorin on Thursday, January 7 , barely 24 hours after his younger sister, Folake Aremu.

Aremu’s younger sister , Mrs Janet Ademola, also died on January 9.

“It is not true that my father, the late Nollywood actress , Orisabunmi, and their younger sister, Janet Onishola died of COVID -19 complications.

“My dad has been on admission since last year and he was diagnosed for another thing entirely.

“It has nothing to do with COVID -19 at all.

“Basketballers are aware. They came visiting. I was with him for a month at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital taking care of him.

“Leave them to be saying their rubbish.. How many people will I explain this to? Do you know where those things have gotten to?’’ Onishola told NAN.

He revealed that the younger sister (Janet) , who died a few days ago, had been managing blood pressure for a long time and that there is a limit to what a woman can take.

“ I think the shock was too strong for her. she had been managing BP for long.”

Onishola said he had taken solace in the fact that his father lived a worthy life because he was able to touch many lives within the basketball circle and outside it.

NAN reports that the deceased was the Manager of Falcons on different occasions before he was appointed as the club’s technical director.

He was part of the Falcons ’ team that secured promotion for the club to the elite division in 2013.
