Actress Tope Osoba’s family has set a new date for her burial.
She’ll be laid to rest on Thursday, September 10, 2026, in Iperu Remo.
The Osoba and Awonuga families announced the details online, saying the body will be moved from OSUTH Sagamu starting at 9:00 am.
A burial service will run from 10:00 am to 11:00 am at Akesan Club, which sits across from Iperu Morning Market.
The family has asked that people wear white, and the burial itself will happen right after the service at Iperu Remo Cemetery.
This new date comes after the family pushed back an earlier plan to bury her on August 13.
They needed more time to sort out arrangements following a candlelight tribute and artists’ night held to remember the actress.
The family expressed gratitude to everyone who showed up for the memorial event and those who’ve been supporting them through prayers and kind gestures.
Osoba passed away following a long battle with breast cancer.
She was well known across the Nigerian film industry and was widely celebrated by her colleagues and fans at the recent tribute held in her honour.
