BBA 2013 finalist, Beverly Osu explains cause of dad’s death

FINALIST at the 2013 edition of the popular Big Brother Africa reality TV show and Nigerian model, Beverly Osu, has lost her father.  ENCOMIUM Weekly had a short chat with the video vixen about the life and times of her dad.

We learnt that you lost your dad.

Yes, that is true.

Accept our condolences.

Thank you very much.

How and when did it happen?

He has been down with stroke for a while now.  I was not even in the country when he passed on.

How did you receive the news?

I was away when he passed on.  My mother did not call me directly to inform me.  Instead, she called Denrele (Edun).  I was with Denrele in America then.  It was Denrele that broke the news to me, it was really sad.

How will you describe him?

My dad was an handsome man.  He was a good man, a no-nonsense father. He was a caring father. He loved his family very much.

We gathered that you did not grow up with your dad?

Not really, we were all staying together until 1999 that I had to leave.  But we did speak on phone, I also saw him once in a while as well.

Can you recall fond memories of him?

I can remember sometime back while I was in primary school, I came back home crying because somebody beat me in school.  When I got home, my father gave me a slap after listening to my story and asked me to go back and slap the person that slapped me.

When will he be buried?

He was buried on Friday, September 19, 2014 and Saturday, September 20 in Delta State.
