Social media was rife with rumors that the veteran actor had died on Sunday at the age of 82.
For some time now, Jacobs had been fighting dementia. "Olu Jacobs is well and alive," Irabor tweeted, nevertheless.
Please disregard any passing rumors. To further demonstrate the actor's survival, Jacobs' family has also produced a video.
His wife Joke Silva revealed in a speech last year that her husband had undergone substantial changes as a result of Jacob's illness.
