This is contrary to online reports that Abiola committed suicide due to loneliness, and lack of a husband to marry.  

The source said, 

“She had been suffering from depression for years and her death has nothing to do with loneliness or lack of a husband or sex. Within the last seven years, I know she was in a relationship twice.

“She ended those relationships on her own because of depression. She said she did not want to bring someone else into her life when she could not take care of herself. She was going through extreme depression, but people that did not know what she was going through have been posting rubbish online.

Another source said Folake who was a worker with Globacom Limited, was on leave when she ended it all by suicide. 

“She recently celebrated her 45th birthday. She was not talking to people; she always kept to herself,” the source added.
