It
is absolutely very sad seeing our entertainers beg for money from fans
and government alike when they are down with life threatening ailments.
Other professionals suffer similar fates and sometimes they cannot
afford treatment but they seldom embark on aggressive media campaigns of
such magnitudes like their entertainment counterparts. This has however
resulted to a big shame and public ridicule
