Victor Olaotan and his disheartening health status

— Nollywood actor in need of funds for treatment

The narrative of Nollywood star, Victor Olaotan is a disheartening one for majority of Nigerians and a trying one for his fellow actors and actresses.

Nigerians have decried the actor’s current health status especially as his recently released photos are the first in a long time. The photos shows a much weakened Victor barely managing to sit on a chair. The photos relayed by fellow actor Seun Ajayi seeks the donations of Nigerians to get the ‘Tinsel‘ star on his feet for the first time since 2016. 

This isn’t the first time friends and well-wishers of the actor have requested aid from the public. In December 2018, the family of Olaotan including friends of his, solicited for funds in order to complete the payment of the sick man’s bill.

The family earmarked $50,000 as the minimum sum of money needed by an undisclosed hospital to undergo the medical procedure designed to aid patients of nervous system injuries

Billionaire and avid amirer of his, Femi Otedola donated $100,000 to this cause, but the ailing man wasn’t fully recovered. His family members kept his health situation off public glare since then.

She described the actor as an agile gentleman who acted with style and panache. She further stressed that the little offer that could be made to him should be done with merry as such deeds are always recorded in eternity.

Actress Abiola isn’t the only of the Nollywood family that has canvassed support for the ailing actor. In an Instagram post, Actress Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman expressed her gratitude to Billionaire Otedola and Multichoice, including the minor donations from the public for haven made the actor’s overseas treatment abroad last year a success.
