Nollywood actor Don Richard, widely known for his daring roles in Yoruba films, has revealed he is battling kidney disease and is in urgent need of financial assistance.
In an emotional interview with actress and talk show host Biola Adebayo on Talk to B, the actor shared how the illness has devastated both his health and finances, leaving him with nothing.
According to Richard, the battle with the disease has drained all his life savings. He disclosed that his wife was overwhelmed with emotion when informed about his diagnosis and had to make painful sacrifices to support his treatment.
“When my wife was told about my condition, she broke down in tears. I told her, ‘another man is a lucky man.’ I begged her to take good care of our children, especially the twins,” he said.
The video, posted by Biola Adebayo on her Instagram page, also featured the actor recounting how his wife sold their house and car in a desperate bid to cover his medical expenses.
“After leaving the hospital, she sold our house and car to pay for my treatment. Now, I have nothing left,” he added.
Now struggling to survive, Don Richard is appealing to kind-hearted Nigerians for financial and emotional support to help him manage the critical condition.
