Unconfirmed reports say Bassey has been on hypertension drugs,an information which suggest she was hypertensive.

Queen of Calabar South as she’s fondly called was a leader of All Progressives Congress in the area and a strong political party mobilizer.

She became the Chairman of Calabar South Local Government Area in 2020 after she emerged as the winner during the competitive elections.
