Veteran actress Jumoke George has conveyed profound gratitude to her colleague Biola Adebayo and the compassionate Nigerian public, following the life-changing reception of a four-bedroom duplex, a plot of land, and an SUV. This remarkable outpouring of support comes months after she publicly appealed for assistance regarding her health and housing challenges.
The actress’s plight had previously gone viral following an emotional interview with Biola Adebayo, during which she candidly disclosed that she had been ill and without stable housing for six years. Prompted by immense public support, Biola Adebayo took to Instagram on Sunday evening to share the joyful update, posting photographs of Jumoke in her newly acquired home and vehicle.
“Today, we present a four-bedroom duplex, SUV, and a plot of land to Jumoke George. Thanks to everyone who made this dream a reality,” Biola wrote, celebrating the collective effort. In a heartfelt appreciation note shared on Instagram on Monday, Jumoke herself praised God and extended thanks to all who stood by her, encompassing those who generously donated, offered prayers, or provided support in any capacity.
“I’m here today to give my maker, the owner of my soul all the Glory, Honour and Adorations,” she began her emotional message. “I thank HIM for where HE’S bringing me, for where I am today and for the place HE’S taking me… I praise HIM bcos HE LISTENS AND ANSWERS PRAYERS.” She further added, “On my knees I say A BIG THANK YOU to you all, those who dipped their hands into their pockets to go extra mile in making sure my life and those of my children have a wonderful turnaround… You all shall live to reap and eat the good fruits and everything you ever laboured for.”
In a truly poignant revelation, Jumoke also confirmed that her daughter, who had previously been trafficked to Mali, has now been safely brought back to Nigeria.
Addressing Biola Adebayo directly, she penned: “@biolabayo1, thank you for being whom you are… thank you for allowing God to use you to rewrite my story and as my Angel of turnaround.” She concluded her heartfelt message with a touching Yoruba sentiment: “Modupe pupo mo mo’on lo’ore o. Oju konitiyin,” which translates to “I am deeply grateful. You will never cry.”
