Stella Damasus has attacked her fellow Nollywood
actors/actresses, calling them pretenders, as more facts surrounding Enebeli
Elebuwa’s illness and eventual death, begins to emerge.
She said
“I’m very angry because the people in my industry
are hypocrites,” she said. “That man was ill for a long time in Lagos and they
turned it into a fanfare. People would go and visit him and take pictures with
him, post it on twitter, on Facebook, on their blogs; they used it to make
people feel that they are philanthropists but nobody lifted a finger to take
care of him or help his family."
“They are more interested in politics; who would be
president, how they can visit dignitaries, who would dash them money. Nobody
cares about the elderly people in the industry.
We know how to celebrate people when they die, but
when they are alive, what do we do for them, especially the sick ones… “The
Delta state government eventually sponsored him to India. I’m just very
pained.”
