“Some beautiful souls made this happen, God bless you all. Wish me luck. #warrior.”

Afolabi also mentioned other Nollywood stars including Mercy Aigbe, Funke Akindele-Bello, Toyin Abraham, Yomi Fabiyi, Akin Olaiya, Adeoti Kazim, Shola Kosoko, Wumi Toriola, and others, as sponsors of the fundraiser.

She further revealed that the treatment began in June 2022.

Earlier this week, rumours that the actress visited a popular church for healing hit social media.

However, reacting to the claims, Afolabi debunked the reports stating that she had never attended a church for healing, adding that she was a devout Muslim and had a personal relationship with Allah.

She also noted that since the news of her illness became public, she had “gotten reports of different misinformation and false narratives out there.”
