Veteran Nollywood actress **Halima Abubakar** has tearfully appealed to Nigerians and her colleagues in the entertainment industry for urgent financial assistance as she battles severe health challenges requiring immediate surgery on her brain and spleen.
In a heartbreaking video posted on her verified Instagram account today, the Kannywood-born star, visibly weak and in pain, revealed that her medical condition has deteriorated to a life-threatening level. Fighting back tears, Halima stated:
“I am tired of begging… I have been managing this sickness for years, but now my brain and my spleen need surgery urgently. I don’t have the strength anymore. Please, I am begging Nigerians, my fans, my colleagues — help me. I don’t want to die.”
The 38-year-old actress, who has been out of the public eye for an extended period due to prolonged illness, disclosed that she has exhausted all her personal resources on treatment both in Nigeria and abroad. She further revealed that doctors have warned that without immediate surgical intervention, her condition could become fatal.
Halima Abubakar has faced significant health struggles in recent years, previously opening up about complications arising from fibroids and other undisclosed ailments that forced her to step away from acting at the peak of her career.
Fans, colleagues, and well-wishers have flooded her comment section with messages of support, prayers, and pledges, while calls mount for celebrities, philanthropists, and corporate organizations to rally behind one of Nollywood’s most beloved figures.
A GoFundMe and local bank account details have been shared on her official Instagram page (@halimabubakar) for those willing to contribute toward her medical bills.
The actress, known for iconic roles in films such as *Men in Love*, *Ladies Gang*, and *Area Mama*, has touched millions with her talent and resilience over the years. Today, she humbly asks for the same love and support to be returned in her darkest hour.
