“He just needs a post-surgery evaluation abroad, and we are gradually putting together funding to send him aboard. He has undergone two brain surgeries, and he’s in good health.” He revealed that the funds collected for the late actor were intended for his resuscitation while in the intensive unit. He also criticised actors who seek funds illegally on behalf of ailing colleagues, saying, ‘It’s disrespectful and embarrassing to Nollywood. It’s offensive and against the constitutional authority to record people on the sick bed and start circulating it purposely for money”.

He also said the second phase is scheduled for 11 May in Lagos State and highlighted the establishment of a committee and the actors’ briefing. According to Mr Rollas, actors who neglect their health will likely encounter health problems, mainly once they are 55 or older.
