Kemi Afolabi, the Nollywood actress, has returned to Nigeria
— after spending a few months in the United States for lupus treatment.
Afolabi had in March revealed that she was diagnosed with
lupus last year. She also said her doctor informed her that she has five years
to live.
The actress’ lupus diagnosis sparked a chorus of concerns
and support from the public, celebrities, fans, and associates.
In July, she commenced her treatment at the John Hopkins hospital in Maryland, United States.
In an Instagram post on Monday, Afolabi said she came back
to meet the country in a “deplorable” state.
In the post, she described Nigeria as her “biggest fear,”
adding that she is “so sad” to be back.
The film star lamented the traffic and weather conditions,
and also the security issues bedeviling the country.
“Back to my biggest
fear, my country Nigeria. Nothing has changed! Same nonni our airport arrival
is damn too hot. The way I quickly removed my top and tied it on my waist to
rock my camisole with pride ehn! them no they tell person, body go tell you,” she
wrote in a mixture of Pidgin and English.
“From the Lagos Murtala Mohammed International Airport
through Oshodi to Mowe via the Lagos/ Ibadan Expressway na traffic full
everywhere! In the end no clue for the cause.
“Wait, what are these politicians using to campaign in the
forthcoming elections because I am not understanding. It must be extremely hard
task for the right authorities to track down kidnappers!
“This is no longer funny at the rate kidnapping is on the
rise on a daily in Nigeria. What will it cost the government to start
ransacking day and night with the use of helicopters, ground troops and all?
“The Ofada-Owode road that leads to my home is in a sorry
state that even SUV car will suffer a hiccup God! Bia Ogun state governor when
are you guys fixing the roads edakun this one concern una o.
“Your excellency sir @dapoabiodunmfr we need your help
urgently, the ofada, obafemi-owode, in Mowe-Ofada in Ogun state amongst others
has gotten really worse.
“Help us, sir, May God strengthen you to do it. Why am
feeling this way though? I am supposed to be happy to be back home after a long
time but I am just so sad.”
