Actress Kemi Afolabi has said she needs financial support to continue her medication after revealing she has lupus.
The 43-year-old made this known in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo published on Thursday.
According to the actress, her colleagues Funke Akindele, Toyin Abgrama, Mercy Aigbe and others have been helpful but she needs more support as she cannot afford to pay for her medication all by herself.
Kemi said she has sold her cars, property and capital for her business to take care of herself.
“I have sold my cars, property, capital for business and Funke Akindele has been helpful, Toyin Abraham, Mercy Aigbe and others reached out and have been there…but I still need more support to be able to continue with my medication,” she said.
Speaking on the illness, she said: “I have lupus. It’s not curable. You just have to take medications for the rest of your life. At a point I was exhausted after spending so much, I said I will stop and just wait for death to come ….but I brazed up for my daughter and have to continue spending the N1.2million on the medication doze weekly to survive.”
