Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede has tragically lost one of her adopted children to cholera.

The movie star shared this heartbreaking news in a post on her Instagram page.

Yvonne recounted that she met the deceased child, Olamide, when he was in Primary 4. He was supposed to advance to JSS3 after the summer break before his untimely passing.
