Omotunde Ogundimu, the Nollywood actress, has thanked her colleague Funke Akindele for supporting her cancer treatment with a “huge amount of money”.
Ogundimu revealed in July that she was battling cervical
cancer and appealed to Nigerians for financial assistance toward her treatment.
In an Instagram post on Thursday, the actress said Akindele
called her unexpectedly and subsequently donated money toward her treatment.
“The first call I got this morning was from Funke. Was
really surprised cos I wasn’t expecting it,” she said.
“Chaiiiii God is just too good to me ooooo. My wonderful
people ẹ jọ̀ọ́ ẹ ba mi dúpẹ́ gan ni.
“Pls help me pray for @funkejenifaakindele for blessing me
this morning towards my cancer treatment, she gave me huge amount of money ni o
haaaaa mi o expect ẹ oooooooo.”
Ogundimu also prayed for Akindele, whom she referred to as
“Iya ibeji”.
“Iya ibeji God will never forsake you lailai, oni ri ogun
aisan loruko Jesu. Aanu a ma wa ẹ ri ni gbogbo ona,” she added.
“You will forever continue to grow from strength to
strength, ipa aye koni ka ẹ o. Modupe gan ni o mo mọ loore.”
The actress’ appeal comes amid a string of reports of
Nigerian movie stars battling or dying from cancer.
Actress Destiny Etiko launched a campaign on behalf of her
colleague Ikechukwu Nweke, who, on July 10, disclosed that he is battling colon
cancer. She also revealed that donations have reached over N13 million.
Similarly, actress Cynthia Anijekwu received over N13
million in donations following her public plea on July 6 for financial support
for her cancer treatment.
