The father of late actress Nimmy Ferrari has responded to claims made by her mother following the actress’ death and burial at her recently constructed home in Sagamu, Ogun.

Nimmy’s mother reportedly accused her father of attempting to exhume her remains and sell the property, forcing him to provide his own account of what occurred.

Speaking about the allegations, Nimmy’s father argued that he could not have injured his daughter, stating that she notified him while she was already in the hospital for fibroid surgery.

Read his words below;

“I can’t kill my child. She called me that she was already at the hospital for fibroid surgery. I asked why she didn’t tell me earlier. I know people who treat it with herbs.”

He revealed that Nimmy informed him that the procedure would cost ₦3.6 million and that her scan expenses had already been paid. He claimed that instead, he recommended a physician he knew in Abeokuta.

In addition to discussing the controversies surrounding Nimmy’s home, the bereaved father clarified that she had informed him that she intended to construct her own home. He said that after telling the family elders, they decided to give her a share of their land.

“While I was building the house for her, she begged me not to let her mother know about it. The first land she bought was through her mother. Her mother later sold the land,” he added.

His story takes place in the midst of Nimmy’s parents’ continuous dispute over who owns the land where she was buried.

Following the actress’s death due to alleged fibroid surgical complications, the disagreement has added still another level of controversy.
