According to reports, she died this afternoon August 21st in a hospital in South Africa after battling Ovarian cancer for a while. She was flown to South Africa on August 11th for treatment after kind-hearted Nigerians raised over N100million for her treatment. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it.
Mayowa’s story went viral after she uploaded an Instagram video soliciting for funds from good spirited Nigerians.
