The news was confirmed late Wednesday night, March 18, through an Instagram post by actress Biola Adebayo.
In an earlier emotional interview on Biola Adebayo's YouTube show, Talk to B, Kafayat revealed that Shanko Rasheed had accused her of causing their son’s death and had stormed the hospital where he passed away.
She explained that she had not seen her remaining two children for over a week after her first child died and was unaware of their whereabouts during that period.
Biola Bayo later shared the joyous news online, expressing joy that the mother of three had finally reunited with her kids after the painful loss of her first child.
The Nollywood actress posted photos of Kafayat with her children, celebrating the victory for Kafayat and thanking those who supported her, including the Lagos State Government.
“Victory at last! Shanko’s wife has finally taken custody of her two children after the loss of her first child. All thanks to everyone that made this happen. Special thanks to @lagosdsva. We are very grateful,” Biola wrote.
