Earlier in the week, actress, Queeneth Agbor, shared a post on social media about her colleague, Halima Abubakar, who is reportedly sick. In the message, she said people should stop judging Abubakar, but empathise with her instead.
In an interview with Sunday Scoop, Agbor said she made the post because she had seen Abubakar go through pain. She said, “I shared the post because I have seen her (Abubakar) go through pain. If those people ‘dragging’ (criticising) her go through the pain, they may not survive it. I shared the post because friends are supposed to support and stand by each other through pain, criticism and tears. It is not just during enjoyment, laughter and joyous celebrations you know true friends, but in moments like this.”
Describing the personality of Abubakar, she said, “Halima is one selfless, strong and sweet lady I know. She is a giver. I have yet to see a person that hides her pain just to cheer up a friend that is sad. If minding one’s business was a person, that would be Halima. However, don’t step on her toes. She is always there to give me advice.”
Speaking on those condemning the actress on social media, Agbor stated, “Sinners judge sinners for sinning differently. Her only crime I guess is having the boldness to free herself by telling her truth. However, gullible people will rather ‘drag’ her instead of asking the right questions.”
