It was sad watching a talented actress like Jumoke George pleading to be assisted in getting a home she can call hers.
She revealed to have been homeless for six years and also gets fed her daily meal by the pastor!
Jumoke George’s emotional appeal was shared in a video posted on Tuesday by fellow actress Biodun Okeowo, popularly known as Omoborty, on Instagram.
In the video, Jumoke, visibly distressed and in tears, narrated her ordeal to actress Biola Adebayo.
“Please mothers pray for me, mothers in the world please help me with your prayers. I have never ruined anyone. I am tired, I can no longer bear it. I don’t have a home, I don’t have anything and my child is missing,” she said.
“I don’t have good health. I am exhausted. I have tried as a Christian. My first born Adeola has been missing for the past four years. I have been sick since January 2.
“I have done several tests, what is remaining is brain and heart test and it is N400,000, I don’t know where to find it. I don’t sleep, I am always in pain. I don’t have a house, I’ve been living in the church for the past 5 to 6 years. My church mommy (Pastor) is the one who feeds me sometimes.”
Appealing for support, Omoborty captioned the video, “Please dear colleagues, friends and fans, kindly let’s support. Whatever we can, it’s not easy anywhere but our widows mite collectively will go a long way. Thank you @biolabayo1.
“‘I’VE BEEN HOMELESS FOR 5/6 YEARS NOW 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭 @jumoke_george’
“I received a heart wrenching message from madam Jumoke George, recounting her painful and disheartening situation.
“The content of the voice note troubled my heart so much that I couldn’t wait any moment longer where I was, so I urgently moved myself and my crew to the place she is staying. After listening to her story, my heart cannot hold the pain.
Madam Jumoke George desperately needs our help and I hope we will come through for her.”
She also shared Jumoke’s account details for those willing to help, “Margaret Olajumoke Olatunde
