She claimed that all attempts to reach the AGN and its president were fruitless.

Kate responded to Stella Maris' misinformation by stating that the guild had assisted a couple of times since 2021 through personal and general donations.

She also noted that Stella Maris may be in trouble, which could explain her statement, but that saying the guild hasn't assisted in her husband's medical care was inappropriate.

"Let me state categorically and vehemently that AGN has been of help to Mr Ibu. I do understand that she is at her wit's end; anybody would be, but to say AGN lied isn't true," she said in part.

fidelia.king:

"The earlier we realize that nobody owes us anything in this life the better for us all. It’s the entitlement mentality for me, did Mr Ibu act any movie for free? "He was paid for all the jobs he was given and the AGN is just an association of actors they make individual donations to the association when a member is sick you don’t expect them to be responsible for a person whenever he or she is sick. Most times some people don’t even go for meetings or make monthly or quarterly contributions to the association. "Mr Ibu’s wife is the problem here just early this year she came out on social media accusing lady Jasmine of snatching her husband from her and how Mr Ibu beats her all in the name of clout. My brothers when looking for a wife find a lady who can rally round for you without causing you more pain. When she was enjoying she didn’t remember Nigerians and AGN."
