"She has been carrying heartbreak around with her for the past 11 years" Ibinabo Fiberesima's son Sean, leads cry for sympathy as mom is remanded in prison.

The eldest son of incarcerated actress and ex-beauty queen, Ibinabo Fiberesima, is currently leading the cry for sympathy in the plea for her mum to regain freedom.

In an emotional piece, the budding footballer appealed to the public to join the plea of his family as they appeal the recently passed judgement on her 44-year old mother and best friend.

He wrote, "This is Sean, first and proud son of Ibinabo Fiberesima, I write on here today to plead with all Nigerians to pray for my mother. She is going through the toughest of times right now, and so are we, her family. I’ve been reading heartbreaking comments on her matter that ‘she thinks she’s above the law’, ‘she doesn’t feel sorry for the family of the deceased’, ‘she was drunk and deserves this punishment’, let me get a few things straight with you now."

'My mother is the most humble woman I know, I was not aware she was a celebrity until I was about 14 and that’s only because my uncle told me, she does not see herself or act as if she is above any other person. She is a proud Nigerian who loves her country and its people.

'Secondly, she has been carrying heartbreak around with her for the past 11 years after the accident. She understands the pain for the deceased family and is very hurt about what happened herself. She has tried her utter most to console with the Family, so don’t ever think she does not care.

'Thirdly she was not drunk, the charges are reckless and dangerous driving, first of all I refuse to believe my mother was driving recklessly or dangerous, as I’ve been in a car with her countless times and nothing has happened. On this occasion it was unfortunate, she was unlucky, her car flipped over which happens to a number of cars and another car smashed into her. She was in a comma for days, she could have easily lost her life, but thankfully, by Gods strength only she survived. She did not set out that day trying to kill someone or herself.

'Right now my mother is broken, and needs the prayer and support of all Nigerians, so please put all your conspiracies about this matter aside, I know it’s between her and God now.

'Join us, myself, Craig her son who is 14, Malcolm and Brian her other sons and her beautiful Daughter Zino who is just 8, and the rest of her family, to pray for her,' Sean wrote on Saturday, March 12, 2016.

Ibinabo was remanded in prison following the judgement of an appeal court sitting in Lagos on Friday, March 11, 2016.
