But Otobo, in a video, has said that her mother’s life is in danger.

She said Mama Tope was coerced into pleading with Suleman.

“I’m just coming from the airport, I just landed in Toronto. And I heard that my mom made a video or a statement. So I called her and she said that she was being threatened and arrested twice,” she said.
