Veteran Nollywood actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, has revealed that his best valentine gift yet is a text message sent to him by business mogul, Femi Otedola, confirming that he had released money for the treatment of Victor Olaotan.
The 57-year-old said he was amazed that
RMD shared the news on Instagram on Friday.
“Valentine has come and gone for many but for me I am still overwhelmed by the best valentine gift yet, a text from a man who has in a short space of time become friend and brother @femiotedola confirming that he has released just a little less than $100,000 (USD) for the commencement of the treatment of my brother and friend Victor Olaotan.
“I just wanted to share this here not to flatter Femi but to reiterate that you are what you do not what you say you will do. Thank you my brother @femiotedola for proving that you are a man of your words. God bless you,” the TV veteran wrote.
Olaotan was involved in a ghastly car crash in 2016 along the Lagos/Ibadan Expressway which cost him the use of both legs.
The accident pushed the much-loved thespian away from the public sphere with fears that he may have his limbs amputated.
A GoFundMe account was opened to raise $50,000 for the ailing actor.
RMD revealed in December 2018 that Otedola had offered to foot the entire bill.
