Nollywood Actor Hanks Anuku Seeks Help, Says “I’ve Been Jobless For Many Years” [VIDEO]
Veteran Nollywood actor, Hanks Anuku, has begged Nigerians for financial assistance, saying he has been jobless for many years.
Anuku was in the news in November 2022 after a disturbing video of himself dressed in tattered clothes while roaming the streets and talking to himself surfaced online.
The actor, however, debunked the claim over a rumoured mental illness, saying it was a movie set.
He was also recently seen in better shape having a brief chat with a stranger at a petrol station in Asaba, Delta.
In a video message via Instagram, the actor pleaded with Sheriff Oborevwori, the Delta state governor, and Nigerians to come to his aid.
Anuku said despite being a “legend”, he has been finding it difficult to feed and does not have a job.
“Oh boy. Well, I am going to address my fans. Those who truly love me, including my governor, Sheriff. I have worked for this country. I have attained the height of being a legend. I have got no job, God knows for how many years,” he said.
“I expect Nigerians also to know that I did it all for them. And if you truly love me. I am just going to ask Governor Sheriff to please support me. And to my fans who truly love me and appreciate the work I have done for them. I will send my account number and if you think you truly love me. May God help you all. Help me. Thank you.”
The caption of the post reads: “I thank u all fans n my guvnor sheriff. I have tried my best to uphold my status as an entertainer, so it’s good to let u all know what I’m going through. I have a family n will love to get all the help from u all. Dropping my account details nothing is ever too small. 0760704404 H.C. Anuku Access Bank.”
