Today, one of the closest persons to her while alive, Mrs Bola Okolie, the boss of Bonix Drinks took to the social media to pay glowing tributes to the memory of late Ibidun once again. She wrote.. "It has been difficult coping with the reality of your sudden exit, but I have been taking inspiration from knowing that God has kept you in a place where no one can hurt your soul.
You left a big vacuum that is impossible to fill, but all the same, we can't question God. Today makes it 100 days since you left, Ibidunni mi, and as I have believed that God has taken you to rest, may your soul continue to enjoy peace. May God make death a resting point for you, my Angel. I will love and miss you forever. Rest on Ibidunni".
