Actress Ada Ameh finally confirmed dead after loosing 8 of her family members to death.
Actress Ada Ameh died yesterday which was Sunday the 17th day of July 2022.
The actress who is well known for her role as “Mama Efe or Mrs Johnson” in the comedy soap series called The Johnsons, Had earlier last month came out to disclose how she’s been battling with depression after burying 8 of her family members including her only daughter.
During her interview, she explained how she had buried her 3 of her brothers, 3 of her sisters amongst which one was a Nigerian female football coach, Then she narrated how she also buried her dad, and lastly her daughter who was her only child. She said that was one of the most difficult moments in her life as her child was practically like a sister to her owing to the fact that she bore her when she was just 14 years old. After her daughter’s death, she said she thought she would be the next person to die but however she lived and was battling with serious depression which she was already recovering from until the sudden news of her demise hit the internet.
It’s very unfortunate that no one thought she would die so soon since she was already doing better. Her Instagram page showed how she’s been having a good time with her friends whom she traveled with over the weekend to Delta state. Infact her last post as of thesame day she died showed her eating excitedly with her friends and she showed no sign of sickness or depression, so the news of her death remains a mystery at least for now.
It was gathered that she had slumped in the night of Sunday and was taken to the Delta state Hospital where she was later confirmed dead. With her family loosing so many family members, we hope her mother and those concerned finds the courage to bear this loss, as this is a huge loss to even the Nollywood industry as her fans have been praying that it should all be a fake news.

Remembering Iyalode of Yorubaland
By Dimeji Kayode-Adedeji
Precisely 365 days today at about 6. 45am, a telephone call I first received came from the home of Alaba Oluwaseun Lawson.
My heart skipped…and listening to the voice from other end of the phone, It was sad news… Mama has gone to the Lord.
Honestly, I was immediately confused and still on my Jalamia, (Pyjamas) I drove straight to her private residence at Quarry Road in Abeokuta. Reality dawned on me on arrival and I couldn’t hold back tears which rolled down my face and I became speechless.
It was a Saturday I used to appear on live radio program on fresh F.M between 9-11am. When I regained my consciousness, I put a call across to management of the station, that I can’t make it because I was bereaved. As I was still trying to comport myself and further regain my strength as a man, there were torrential phone calls from my colleagues in the pen profession, knowing that I was her media adviser, trying to confirm authenticity of the sad news.
I had no choice I had to issue a press statement early enough to avoid speculations and wrong news dissemination. I must confess in my career as journalist of over three decades that was my first time I will be writing a press statement on a demise of any individual.
I must again openly say this, late Iyalode Alaba Lawson, Iyalode of Yorubaland, I knew for over 30 years was my great benefactor and I will continue to appreciate her even in death. She was there for me all time, a reliable mother, a sister and aunty from another womb.
I have no regret knowing her, if there is opportunity to keep relationship in heaven, I will keep that relationship with Alaba Oluwaseun Lawson (Omo Jiboku Tanatana). Its exactly a year today you left this sinful world to rest in the arms of the Lord. The legacies you left behind speak volume. I pray you continue to rest in perfect peace. Adieu
