The 61-year-old ailing actor had also received donations from his fans, groups and other well-meaning Nigerians who genuinely love and care for him.

Oneweek, however, reiterated that despite all that has been done, his cousin's full treatment and recovery still require funding, and he called on Nigerians to kindly donate to the cause.

"Contrary to most online publications, Amaechi is my first cousin. His father and my father are of the same father. We have had a wonderful relationship as members of the same industry, and I am proud of him as a "brother". Amaechi is so loved worldwide and his fans, friends and ndi Obosi have been wonderful so far. Many groups have been donating money for his hospital bills. As at today, there's some improvement. His blood sugar is under control but he is still on admission, weekly dialysis, physiotherapy and other treatments."
