Veteran Nollywood actress Jumoke George, who recently revealed her six-year battle with homelessness and illness, has received overwhelming support from generous Nigerians who gifted her a four-bedroom duplex, a plot of land, and an SUV.
The actress had earlier made an emotional appeal for financial assistance during an interview with fellow actress Biola Bayo, where she disclosed her dire living conditions and health challenges.
Overwhelming Public Response
On Sunday evening, Biola Bayo announced the good news via Instagram, sharing photos of George with her new car and house. "Today, we present a four-bedroom duplex, SUV, and a plot of land to Jumoke George. Thanks to everyone who made this dream a reality," Bayo wrote in her post.
The public's generous response comes just weeks after George's heartfelt plea went viral on social media, highlighting the power of community support within the Nigerian entertainment industry and among fans.
Recent Family Challenges
This positive development follows another recent family challenge for the actress. According to reports, George's daughter was recently rescued by the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) after a four-year ordeal in Mali, where she claimed to have been sold into prostitution.
The actress's story has resonated with many Nigerians, highlighting both the challenges faced by some veteran entertainers and the willingness of the public to support those in need.
This gesture of goodwill comes at a time when several Nollywood veterans have spoken out about financial difficulties and lack of support within the industry.
