Nigerian actress Gloria Young is using her platform to seek
funds and support for fellow actor who is down with endometrial cancer.
Sharing a picture of the ailing actress, Young wrote a
caption, urging well meaning Nigerians to donate whatever they can afford into
Ify Onwuemene’s bank account to help her.
‘Folks please we need help for our sister @ifyonwuemene an
actress from the days of Sam loco and Enebeli Elebuwa. I worked with her last
on the set of Tajudeen Adepetu’s “Everyday People” in the late 90’s. She is
down with endometrial cancer. She has tried sourcing for funds on her own, but
nothing is too small. Please send whatever you can to Ifey Onwuemene, Fidelity
Bank 6010999993.
Thank you’
This isn’t the first time a Nollywood actor will fall ill
and ask for help. Some of them include Leo Mezie, Ernest Asuzu, Sadiq Daba and
a host of others.
Endometrial cancer is a cancer that arises from the
endometrium (the lining of the uterus or womb). It is the result of the
abnormal growth of cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other
parts of the body. The first sign is most often vaginal bleeding not associated
with a menstrual period.
Gloria Young has featured in several movies and won the City
People Movie Award for Movie Couple of the Year at the City People
Entertainment Awards.
Young is married to Nollywood colleague Norbert Young and
they have three children together.
