Veteran actress Hilda Dokubo has debunked rumors of her death, confirming she’s alive and well.

In an Instagram live session, she addressed the false claims, emphasising commitment to speaking out on politics and governance.

Dokubo expressed frustration over the rumors, stating that blogs frequently claim she’s died, and it’s not a big deal.

The rumors allegedly started on Facebook, with claims that Dokubo was organising a rally with suspended Rivers Governor Sim Fubara to pressure President Bola Tinubu and Minister Nyesom Wike.

She said: “Everybody, this is me, healthy and strong. I’m not dead. I’m not dying now. I’m not afraid. Do you know how many times blogs have written that I d!ed? Every second, every minute, they’re killing one actor or the other. So, it’s not a big deal.

“But a lot of people have been worried. I also worry for my friends. People had even gone to visit my mum who is almost 80 years old.

“If you know anything about me, I am fearless. Whatever I want to do, I will do. And I will say exactly how I want to say it. I was properly raised by very good parents. Money is the least of my cares. Everybody, including (Sim) Fubara (suspended Rivers State governor), knows that I am not ‘bribable’. If I were, I wouldn’t be where I am. I wouldn’t be on the side of truth.”

Dokubo denied these claims, saying she loves to dance and make speeches, not organise rallies.

Dokubo maintained that she’s fearless, properly raised, and not bribable.

She vowed to continue advocating for good governance and truth, ignoring those who spread false information.

She added: “I have no business organizing a rally or whatever you called it to push a man. If you had any sense in your chicken head, you would have known that I love to dance. Every time I attend an event in my community, I dance. If you can’t find me dancing, you can only find me climbing up a stage to make a speech.

“I would never wish him dead. I am not a proponent of politics with bitterness.

“I am not a coward and can never be one. No matter what they do, I will not change my position. I will try my best to ignore ignoramuses. But I want you to take this as a fact: I, Hilda, will never, ever wish death on anyone. Not even at my lowest.” (The Nation)
