Not long after rumours emerged of the death of actor, Olu Jacobs, the elderly veteran was seen hanging out with his wife, Joke Silva.
They were both sighted with their son at the Afriff Global award which held in Lagos State.
News about the death of the popular actor made the rounds on social media for at least one week.
However, pictures posted by Joke Silva on her social media pages showed the 79-year-old looking hale and hearty.
Mrs Jacobs had, before posting the pictures, debunked rumours of his death.
This also comes after fans of the actors expressed concern about him looking frail as he appeared to have lost a lot of weight.
Joke Silva, in a chat with The Punch, also confirmed that her husband was hale and hearty.
At the Afriff event, Olu Jacobs won a ‘Lifetime Achievement Award’ as fans who saw them react to his latest looks.

Veteran Nigerian actor, Olu Jacobs and his dear wife Joke Silva, who is also a legend in her own right stepped out last night for the Afriff Globe Awards.
You can tell the state of a person’s health from the quality of their skin. Uncle Olu’s skin is practically glowing and rejuvenated. And to be honest, I prefer his physique now to the round, pot bellied physique people were used to seeing before..
In my opinion, he has never looked healthier, so I don’t understand why some people are lamenting about his looks in this photo.
Dude is aging gracefully and I love it. Wishing you and your wife, long life and good health.
