Funke Bucknor-Obruthe, sister to the late on-air personality Tosyn Bucknor, has come out to celebrate the broadcaster on her posthumous birthday. Reminding her followers that Tosyn would have been 44 on the 17th of August, 2025, Funke revealed that her courage is stil inspiring after her demise.
Reacting via a joint collaboration post with These Genes Foundation, alongside photos of Tosyn, herself and their father, Mrs Bucknor-Obruthe celebrated the life of the late OAP, stating that she’ll never forget the impact Tosyn had on people wherever she went.
According to her, remembering her beloved sister is also her way of remembering everyone living with sickle cell anaemia.
She concluded by urging Nigerians to honour the late Tosyn Bucknor by joining in the fight against the deadly condition.
“Today, we celebrate the beautiful life of Tosyn, a soul whose strength, light, and courage still inspire us every day.
As I remember my sister, I also remember everyone living with sickle cell.
In her honour and in the spirit of the things she loved, we’re asking you to stand with us in the fight against sickle cell,” she wrote.
The stunning media personality was found dead by her husband, Aurélien Boyer, in November 2018.
