VIDEO: Fire guts actress Bidemi Kosoko’s house

Popular Nollywood actress, Bidemi Kosoko, has lost properties worth millions of naira in a fire outbreak at her residence.

The actress’ sister and colleague, Shola Kosoko-Abina, disclosed the fire outbreak on her Instagram account on Wednesday, December 27, 2023.

Sharing videos of the damaged flat and possessions, Shola stated that the inferno occurred while she and her siblings were at the residence of their father and veteran actor, Jide Kosoko, on Tuesday, December 26.

She said: “We thank God for his faithfulness, love and prospering our lives in the year 2023.

“It has become a tradition in my family to spend the 26th of December which is Boxing Day at our daddy’s place, where we all exchange and unwrap our gifts. So, this year, we decided to record the activities because it’s always fun merrying together with family.

“So Bidemi Kosoko, her husband, kids and her domestic staff were all at our daddy’s residence, so her apartment was locked up.

“In the middle of our merriment, we received an alarming call that Bidemi’s apartment was on fire as well as her neighbour’s apartment.

“In fact, myself, my dad and Bidemi were getting ready to attend another important event before we received the call. And what we got was what happened in the video.”

Shola further revealed that the fire was put out by firefighters, Bidemi’s friend, and her husband.

She added: “We were on different video calls watching the scenario, how the firefighter arrived, how her apartment was forced open and how they eventually put off the fire.

“Thanks to Bidemi’s friend, Taiwo Lawal and her husband who stay in the same estate and rushed there to assist. People in the neighbourhood showed love and support to ensure the fire was put out.

“We appreciate you all for your show of love and kindness. Such a thing will not happen to anyone again I pray.

“In all, we are thankful to God for sparing our lives as no one was caught in the fire. We shall witness the year 2024 in peace and joy. Please thank God for us. In all, we give THANKS TO HIM.”
