1 / 4

Actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday has criticised people sharing screenshots of private chats after actress Tope Osoba's reported death. She said many of those now presenting themselves as close to Osoba did not support her when she returned to acting in 2025 after surviving breast cancer. Osoba, reported to have died at age 40, has been widely mourned on social media since the news emerged on August 5.

I agree. Grief should not become a competition over who can display the most private memories.

The criticism highlights how public grief can look very different from the support someone received while alive.

Still, sharing a tribute does not automatically mean every person was pretending to care.

A better response may be respecting her memory, avoiding private screenshots, and supporting people before tributes are needed.
