Veteran actress, Ngozi Nwosu has vowed never to offer free services to her home state of Abia.
She cited a lack of support during her health struggles. In a recent interview with Nollywood on Radio, the 61-year-old actress recounted how the Abia state government neglected her during a serious health crisis in 2012, which led her to this firm decision.
Ngozi Nwosu, who faced a kidney-related illness, stated that she has since made a commitment that any future services would require substantial compensation from the state.
“I have personally said it that there is nothing my state will call me for that I would go for free.
“They would pay through their nose for me to be there. I am from Arochukwu local government, Abia state,” she stated.
Nwosu also shared that during her health struggles, she received vital assistance from the Lagos state government, thanks to a woman who referred to her as her “favourite actress.”
“It was the fame I had through the roles I played in series then that helped me when I needed help.
“The person who called the Lagos state government did it because I was her favorite actor. So when she heard I was down she called the government to save my live because she loves me,” she added.
