According to TheTimes Nigeria, Nollywood actress Halima Abubakar says a difficult period of ill health changed how she viewed colleagues, friendship and support within the entertainment industry.
She said some people she expected to check on her never did, while others including Patoranking, Mercy Eke, Ahmed Musa, Destiny Etiko and Regina Daniels offered help.

Echotitbits take: The story matters because illness, industry relationships and celebrity support networks often become public only after a crisis. Abubakar’s comments are personal testimony, not an independent finding against any colleague.
