Cossy Ojiakor
Busty thespian, Cossy Ojiakor down-cast recently, when she surfaced at a press preview of the flick, “House of Talents” , a production of Andy Boyo, in Lagos.
The controversial actress arrived the Magnificent Cinema house’s venue of the event, in Shomolu, walking with crutches. Dressed in ash-coloured jumpsuits on blue top, Cossy was seen with a cast on her left foot as she made her way into the cinema hall. She was all smiles and looking radiant despite recuperating from a foot surgery, which she underwent recently.
The actress had shared the video of her foot surgery via her Instagram page late last month, expressing her desire to get crutches so as to enable her walk again. However, narrating her ordeal, after the event, the actress said she sustained a foot injury at her home. And while she went to the General hospital on the Lagos island for treatment, the doctors surprisingly recommended that she should undergo a foot surgery.
According to her, she was not prepared for the surgery as she had no money on her at that time. But her friends rallied around her, even though she lamented the nonchalant attitude of her colleagues in the movie industry, who never bothered to visit her while she was lying on the hospital bed.
Said she: “All my friends rallied around me but nobody from Nollywood visited me. It’s okay”.
Tha fair-complexioned actress further lamented that she’s getting too fat, due to her condition as she’s no longer visiting the gym. “ I am getting too fat now because I am always indoors but I am fine now,” the actress said.
Cossy, who revealed that she would be attending the burial of her grand mother over the weekend, in her home town , said it took more than a month for her foot surgery to heal properly. She also disclosed how her foundation, Cossy Ojiakor Foundation came to the rescue of poor Daniel, who underwent a similar foot surgery by upsetting his medical bills.
