Actress Ronke Oshodi-Oke disclosed that she had to pay up to N800,000 a month for medication due to a severe health issue.
The actress claimed that the financial strain of her therapy was unbearable in an interview with African A List.
Nonetheless, she was supported by certain colleagues in the film business as well as APC chieftain Musiliu Akinsanya, better known by his stage name MC Oluomo.
“Thanks to MC Oluomo and my colleagues who kept me alive today. Do you know what it means for someone to buy drugs worth N800,000 every month?” she said.
Oshodi-Oke also revealed how, after learning of her sickness, actress Sotayo Gaga sent her N150,000, even though they hadn’t spoken for five or six years after a small argument.
“The last time Sotayo and I spoke was six years ago. But when she heard that I fell sick, she sent me N150,000. If we meet at a party, we bypass each other without greeting,” she said.

The actress further disclosed that her experience during the health challenge led her to join the Celestial Church of Christ.
“It was when I was terribly sick that I joined Cele. As for me, I don’t condemn other religions,” she added.
Nollywood actress and producer Toyin Abraham has disclosed that her husband, Mr Kolawole Ajeyemi, had threatened to divorce her if she didn’t quit smoking.
Abraham revealed that she was a cigarette addict in a recent episode of The Morayo Show, but she stopped because she didn’t want to lose her marriage.
Although she acknowledged that she still vapes despite giving up cigarettes, she thanked her husband for his support and influence on her life and career.
“My husband, Kolawole Ajeyemi is one of the best things that ever happened to me. He lets me shine and be me. I used to be a cigarette addict but he warned me that if I don’t stop smoking our marriage won’t work. I had to stop it because I valued my marriage. Well, I have stopped cigarettes but I still do vapes,” Abraham said.
The actress added that her husband is not controlling and lets her do whatever makes her happy, provided it is safe.
