Nigerian actress Stella Damasus reportedly collected N3.5 billion from the trust fund her late husband Jaiye Aboderin's family set up for their daughters.
According to blogger Stella Dimoko Korkus (SDK), the movie star recently relocated to Nigeria from the US and collected the money her late husband's family kept.
SDK claimed that after Jaiye died, the Aboderin family opened a trust fund named the Estate of Jaiye Aboderin and fixed an account for their two daughters in a bank.
The money accumulated to N3.5 billion in 2024 and the actress, who has been living in the United States, relocated to the country recently to access the funds.
SDK's sources confirmed that the Aboderins were no longer signatories to the account, and the money now belongs to Stella's daughters, who are adults. However, their mother will supervise the account.
Jaiye died of a heart attack on December 3, 2004, while playing basketball.
