Meanwhile,Moji Oyetayo, the PRO of the Lagos State chapter of Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN),.commented on how
the health issues are being handled in their organization:
“So many artistes are lackadaisical about revalidating their membership and the truth of the matter is that, we can’t help anyone who is not on the plan. Anything regarding an actor’s medical bills is fully taken care of under this plan. We’ve had instances of several actors who had needed assistance and had been fully taken care of because they were under this health scheme. ‘I do know that Ibinabo was in touch with Muna, but I don’t have details of what she did for him personally.’”
