Veteran actress Ngozi Nwosu has announced that she will never provide free services to her home state of Abia, explaining her rationale behind this decision.
Nwosu pointed to a lack of support from the state during her health challenges as the reason for her stance.
In 2012, the star of Fuji House of Commotion faced a serious kidney-related illness and noted that the Abia state government did not assist her during that difficult time.
In a recent interview with Nollywood on Radio, the 61-year-old actress expressed her disappointment and frustration with the situation. She emphasized that any future services she offers to the state will come at a significant cost.
“I have personally stated that there is nothing my state could call me for that I would do for free. They will pay dearly for my presence; I’m from Arochukwu local government in Abia state,” she asserted.
Nwosu also recounted how a devoted fan alerted the Lagos government, which ultimately helped her during her health crisis.
“It was the fame I gained through my roles in series that assisted me when I needed help. The person who contacted the Lagos state government did so because I was her favorite actor. When she heard I was in trouble, she reached out to the government to save my life out of love for me,” she added.
