Nollywood actress, Ajara Lasisi, popularly known as Aunty Ajara, has died after battling an undisclosed illness, her family has announced.
Her death occurred while colleagues in the Nollywood industry were still raising funds to support her treatment as her health continued to decline, despite medical care and financial efforts made by her family.
In a video on Thursday, her elder brother, Ridwan Lasisi, speaking on behalf of the family, said the doctors pronounced her dead this morning after all efforts to manage the illness failed.
He also appealed for the ongoing fundraising to be stopped, noting that the person for which the fund is being raised is dead.
