Actress Mama No Network has appealed to the public for help for her colleague, Aunty Ajara, who she said is pregnant and in critical condition.
In a video shared on Instagram on Friday, Mama No Network explained that Ajara’s health has deteriorated and that urgent support is needed.
“Good day everyone, I hope you are all doing well. I am here to appeal to the public concerning Ajara. Many of us often question why we post ‘RIP’ messages more than we celebrate and support one another while we are still alive. For God’s sake, I am sincerely begging you all — Ajara is currently in a critical condition.
“Some people think this is content, but it is not. This is real life. Time is not on Ajara’s side right now, and we urgently need your support — both financially and in prayers. You all know that I, Mama_no_network, rarely do things like this, but Ajara is a child I love deeply. She is very accommodating and respectful.
“One of the main reasons I am speaking out is because no matter the amount of money you give Ajara, she is never ungrateful. All she ever says is that she is going home to give it to her mother, who is a stroke patient. She takes care of her mother with every penny she earns. It is not that Ajara is not working or earning, but you all know her condition.
“I am also appealing because Ajara is currently pregnant. We did not detect the pregnancy early until her condition worsened. In December, I advised her to go to the hospital for proper treatment instead of self-medication. It was during that visit we discovered she was pregnant. Sadly, the doctors have now said it is a liver disease, which we initially thought was pregnancy-related.
“Despite her condition, Ajara has been traveling to different locations. Please, this is not content, and we cannot sit back and fold our arms. Also, we will take any recommended drug to reduce her pain.
“We sincerely beg you, our people, to come to her aid. Thank you.”
Mama No Network stressed that the appeal was genuine and urged Nigerians to support Ajara with prayers and financial assistance.
The appeal has drawn reactions within the Yoruba film industry, with other actors also calling on the public to support Aunty Ajara as she continues to battle her health challenges.
