“The husband also couldn’t make it. He just passed away. Pathoranking tried so much. Buying tones of blood to help save his brother-in-law’s life so at least his nephew won’t be an orphan.
“Remember he loves his sister so much. Abeg, his friends should help check on him.”
As of the time of filing this report, no comment has been made by Patoranking or his manager over the incident.
