By 3 am Nigerian time yesterday it was reported that Olaiya’s health condition had worsened. “Her blood pressure shot up and she got unconscious. An ambulance was called to transport her to the hospital. But her case worsened and she gave up the ghost before the could make it to the hospital” she revealed.
