The Big Brother Naija alumni are grieving as one of their own, Hermes Iyele, has recently lost his beloved mother. Hermes took to his verified Instagram account to share the heartbreaking news of his mother’s passing.
Mrs. Isioma Ohebian Iyele passed away on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, though the exact cause of her death is still unknown at this time.
Sharing photos of his late mum and a video of them both, Hermes announced in his post:
“It is with the heaviest of hearts that I’d like to make public the passing of my beloved mum ISIOMA PHEBIAN IYELE on the 5th of November 2024. I’m doing this so I can properly start my grief and also because I currently lack the strength or capacity(mentally and finance wise) to handle this situation. Pls pray for my siblings and I. Pls support us in all the ways you can.”
Hermes revealed in parts that he was on a work trip when he heard the heartwrenching announcement. He continued:
“I’m currently on a work trip and got the news in transit, I’m trying as much as I can to function in the regard of duty that has brought me here whilst trying to do my part of what needs to be done to see this tragedy through, so pls be patient with me as I won’t be able to respond to calls and texts for the time being. We will start the burial process as soon as I’m back.“
