Popular Nollywood stars, including Wumi Toriola, Mide Martins, Afeez Owo, and Ronke Oshodi Oke, have solicited financial assistance for small-screen actress Aunty Ajara amid her battle with liver disease.

Recall that Aunty Ajara was seen in a viral video on social media, begging the general public to save her life.

The pregnant Ajara, who was placed on oxygen in the hospital, was heard saying, “Please help me.”

Shortly after the short video surfaced online, many Nollywood stars took to their individual social media pages to solicit financial support for her.

Reacting to the development, netizens berated the celebrities for constantly seeking public help for colleagues while they waste bundles of money at parties.

Speaking amid the backlash, actress Mama No Network, in a video on her Instagram page, explained that they have contributed over N5 million for the ailing actress, but her health keeps deteriorating.

Revealing the nature of her sickness, No Network said: “Good evening everyone. I’m here because of Ajara. It was you guys who advised us that the way we posted RIP is too much. Please, for God’s sake, I’m pleading with you. Ajara is in critical condition.

“This is not content. We need financial support from the public and serious prayers. It’s not that Ajara has not been working, but she has been using most of her earnings to care for her mother, who is suffering from a stroke. The funniest part is that she’s pregnant. I’m also surprised to now hear that she’s also battling a liver-related illness,” she said.

Celebrities who also solicited help for her include actress Kemity, actor Jamiu Azeez, actress Bimpe Oyebade, and singer Lanre Alewilese, among others.

Women are backbone of Nollywood, says Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde

Published

Award-winning Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has said that women are the backbone of Nigeria’s film industry, saying they dominate key areas and often operate multiple businesses alongside their acting careers.

Speaking during an interview at Naija FM 102.7 which was shared on Youtube on Friday and has since been trending, the actress emphasised the critical role women have played in sustaining Nollywood from its early days.

“Women are the ones who hold this industry, right from the start. Women are the ones who do well for this industry. Women are mostly the producers. Women are the ones who hold Nollywood really,” she said.

She further highlighted the entrepreneurial drive among female actors, noting that many of them run multiple businesses in addition to acting.

“I don’t know any female actor, even small ones who just entered this industry, that don’t get at least like three or four businesses,” she said. “A lot of the females get businesses. They run different things. Most of them are influencers. They are doing acting, modelling, they have shops.

“You will hear say this one get boutique, that one gets this one, virtually everybody I know gets one or the other. Our job is very intense. You have to be on call. With acting, this is crazy to me. I think the balance must be there,”

Omotola also compared the experiences of male and female actors, stating that while men receive admiration, the level of attention women get is more intense.

“Male actors too dey try, but I don’t think it’s as intense as the women,” she said. “Women get admirers. Men too get admirers wey dey help them, but women have more.”

Omotola went on to reveal that even as a married woman, she continues to receive assistance and gifts from admirers, both men and women.

“Me, wey be married woman sef, I know how many people don dash me things. Asin women and men not be just men, women and men just see me, just say, ‘Oh, I’m sending you this, they don dash me car before sef”she said.

Despite the attention and gifts, the actress emphasised that her husband remains completely secure in their marriage.

“My husband is the most secure. How you go marry Omosexy and you no go Dey secure. My husband is the most secure human being you will ever meet. The most secure, you know, no shaking,” she stated.

Omotola, who has been married for over two decades, is often regarded as one of Nollywood’s most admired actresses and has frequently spoken about the importance of trust and stability in marriage.
