​Halima Abubakar has cried out for help publicly. ​The actress went live on social media on January 29, 2026. She wept while speaking to a host about her housing crisis.

​She claimed her landlady evicted her despite her poor health. The star said she currently suffers from an illness that needs surgery. ​Her financial struggles have sparked debate online. ​

This incident follows a rocky period for the star, after the actress Halima Abubakar suspended by Actors Guild of Nigeria over misconduct claims.

​Rent troubles and health battles

​The host advised her to find a cheaper house. He noted that her current rent of 2.5 million Naira is too high.

​Halima rejected suggestions to move to Lugbe. She said the location is too far from her hospital. ​She insisted she needs to stay close to the city for care.

​”Everywhere, there is no house,” she said through tears. “They said I should go to Lugbe. It is too far for my treatment.”

​The actress revealed she has only 600,000 Naira left in her account. ​She said donors sent this money to help with her medical bills.

​Public health appeals often draw attention, much like when an influencer claims viral fame boosts income after rib surgery.

​Dispute with the landlady

​Halima made a shocking claim about her landlady. ​She said the property owner knew about her surgery plans. ​”My landlady said why wouldn’t I remove the house rent money from the operation money,” Halima stated.

​She insisted she would not spend donor money wrongly. ​”We don’t eat money that is not for something,” she told the host. “God doesn’t want that.” ​The host tried to calm her down during the session.

​He confirmed receiving small donations from fans abroad. One fan sent $50 to help the distressed star. ​Halima promised to show proof of her surgery to her fans. She begged them not to abandon her now.
