Ngozi Nwosu Blasts Abia State Govt Over Abandonment During Her Illness

Actress Ngozi Nwosu has disclosed that she will “never render” free services to her home state Abia over what she described as abandonment during health crisis.

In a recent interview with Nollywood on Radio, the 61-year-old said the alleged lack of support from Abia State Government during her 2012 battle with a kidney ailment left a lasting impact on her.

This experience, she revealed, prompted her decision to seek compensation for any future engagements with the state.

“I have personally made a pact that there is nothing my state can call me for that I would attend for free,” Ngozi stated firmly.

“They will pay through their nose for me to be there. I am from Arochukwu Local Government, Abia State.”

The movie star recalled how help eventually came through a fan in Lagos who referred to her as her “favourite actress” and reached out to the Lagos State Government on her behalf.

“It was my fame from acting that ultimately helped me when I was in need,” she explained.

“The person who contacted the Lagos government did so because she was a fan. When she found out I was ill, she called on the Lagos authorities to save my life.”

In 2022, she revealed that the speculations surrounding her health condition drove her into depression.

Ngozi began her acting journey in Yoruba language films.

She however made her iconic home-video debut in Living in Bondage.

She has also featured in music videos for Chidinma Ekile, Fair Prince and Davido among others.
