Veteran Nollywood actor, Bruno Iwuoha, needs financial assistance to restore his health as he has been battling with diabetes which has now claimed one of his eyes.
The actor disclosed this during an interview on the Brekete Family Program on 104.5FM in Abuja.
He said “I’ve gone to so many places; within the country, outside the country for treatment, until finally…finally, the thing diabetes claimed one of my sight. As I look at you now, I’m using only one sight. They call that glaucoma. And gradually, it’s affecting the other one. That why I need some cash and drugs and all that…but I discovered that this thing [the illness] is a lifetime something. And it has robbed me of the job [acting]. And now, if I get a script, it will be hard for me to read it very well. And if I read it, if I strain my eyes for so long, it would look as if someone would lead me around the house or anywhere I want to go because it will affect the only one [eye]. So that’s my problem.”
According to report, the actor is suffering from a kind of diabetes called glaucoma.
However, it was gathered that the actor needs to be transferred to a US-based hospital which would cost him 5million for the treatment but all he has so far is N200, 000.
No help seems to come from AGN yet.
