“I don’t sleep because I’m always in pain. Everything is wrong with me. I don’t understand anymore. I have put that child in so much debt,” she added, her voice quivering.

@AjibolaFaisol01: “Feels like a Nollywood scene, but I hope it’s not. If it’s real, this is heartbreaking.”

@AbimbolahOlaibi: “Where are all the big names now? We throw lavish weddings, but ignore those in need. We lack love and empathy in this country.”

@Ayomide531909: “You people enjoy offline and bring pain online for attention? Be real, mama.”

@graphicalsoccer: “This is sad 😢. I always thought she was financially stable and acted for fun. May God help her.”

@DjL0ngmann: “Forgive me, but this woman always plays sad roles. Now it’s like her reality mirrors her scripts. Maybe a happier role could help shift her spirit.”

@sheyi_omotayo: “She attends a church on my street in Agbado. We assumed she was doing well. It hurts to now realize she’s suffering in silence.”

This pathetic and overwhelming situation illuminates the silent battles most Nollywood actors and people in general face.

Considering how the artists’ faces light glow on the screen, no one will ever think they there is another life behind the screen.

Recently in an interview, Chief Koran also disclosed how he lost his two wives in a day−one in the morning and the other in the night.

It is totally pathetic, and also discouraging to up and coming movie stars that they can be forgotten by the industry they tirelessly worked to build.

As fans are moved by her outcry for help with prayers and support, many also questioned how many celebrities, who gave their all to Nigerian entertainment industry, could be left to suffer.

Let u pray and hope that her cry for aid arouses a wave of action−and that she gets healing, peace and aid she deserves.

Quick Recovery and Get well soon, Veteran Actress Jumoke George
