After disclosing that she is fighting cancer for the second time, Nollywood actress Cynthia Anijekwu has made an emotional plea to Nigerians for financial support.
The actress revealed that she was initially diagnosed with cancer in 2023 and underwent surgery and chemotherapy in a widely shared video on social media.
“I have have cancer in 2023 (sic). I did my surgery and took chemotherapy, but later it came back again. I’ve been in and out of the hospital. The doctor recently told me it has reached my bones, and the treatment is now much more expensive.”
“I need to live. I need to survive. I’m asking Nigerians to please help me. Anyone that can help, please, I need help. Even my hands have swollen. The cancer has affected both breasts. I need to live. Please help me. I need to survive.”
“Your one naira, your two naira can add up to something reasonable for me to get the proper treatment for this cancer. I’m begging you, please help me,” she pleaded.

We stand with her in heartfelt support and prayers, wishing her a swift and full recovery.
