Veteran actress Ngozi Nwosu has announced that she will no longer provide free services to her home state of Abia, citing a lack of support during her past health struggles as the reason for her decision.
In a recent interview with Nollywood on Radio, the 61-year-old star of "Fuji House of Commotion" expressed her disappointment with the Abia state government, particularly recalling her serious health crisis in 2012 when she suffered from a kidney-related illness. Nwosu stated that during this challenging time, she received no assistance from her home state.
Reflecting on her experiences, she made it clear that any future services she offers to Abia will come at a significant cost. "I have personally said that there is nothing my state will call me for that I would go for free. They would pay through their nose for me to be there; I am from Arochukwu local government, Abia state,” she remarked.
Nwosu also shared how she ultimately received help from the Lagos state government thanks to a devoted fan who alerted officials about her situation. "It was the fame I had through the roles I played in series then that helped me when I needed help. The person who called the Lagos state government did it because I was her favorite actor. So when she heard I was down, she called the government to save my life because she loves me," she added.
