Nollywood actress Lola Alao who has relocated to Canada for years now, has opened up on her new role as the Guardian of the late Aisha Abimbola’s kids Lashe and Keji.
Kemi Filani News recounts that after actress Aisha Abimbola passed away in Canada after battling cancer in 2018, her colleague and dear friend, Lola Alao took full custody of the two kids she left behind.
In an Instagram live video with City People this week, Lola Alao and the kids revealed that they preferred their lives in Canada to Nigeria.
“We prefer our lives in Canada because the government provides us with light, there is security but we don’t have all that in Nigeria.”
Speaking on Keji’s surgery, Lola Alao said
“life is better off here though Keji, as you can see, is still using helmet, she had surgery a few months ago and still uses helmet to help her heal fast.
It all started as a joke when she was supposed to go to school that morning but she complained of headache and I thought it was a minor thing before we knew what was happening we discovered it was serious, she was at the hospital for months for surgery and I had to stop working to take care of her for months.
Thank God she is okay, she was treated for free despite going through surgery, imagine all that in Nigeria and the amount that will be required, honestly God has really been faithful. Canadian government are the best.
Then let’s talk about what the government have been doing since the lockdown started, they have been giving us food, provision and money, I give it to their government 100 per cent. I don’t understand our leaders travels a lot and they see what’ s happening in other countries I don’t understand why they can’t do things differently for once. It’s such a pity.” she concluded.
