‘I’m homeless, management took my money’ — Aunty Ramota seek help

Popular Nigerian actress Ramota Adetu, widely known as Aunty Ramota, has opened up about her financial struggles and current housing difficulties.

In a video now circulating widely, Aunty Ramota revealed that she is currently homeless after being asked to leave her former residence.

She explained that her former housemate recently married, and her new husband expressed discomfort with Aunty Ramota’s presence, leading to the request for her to vacate.

Her situation has drawn support and sympathy from fans, with many calling for assistance for the actress in these challenging times.

I’m currently stranded without accommodation. The lady I was staying with got married last month, and she asked me to leave because her husband wasn’t comfortable with me staying there.

The man who was helping me build my house stopped because of personal issues.

Aunty Ramota further explained that her hope of moving into a home of her own had been stalled as the individual helping her build her house had halted the project due to personal challenges.

On top of these setbacks, the actress alleged mismanagement and financial exploitation by her management team, accusing them of mishandling her earnings and deleting her social media accounts despite her tireless efforts.

“I am currently stranded without accommodation. The lady I was staying with got married last month, and she asked me to leave because her husband was not comfortable with me staying there,” she said.

“The man who was helping me build my house stopped because of personal issues. To make things worse, my management stole all the money I had. They even deleted my TikTok and every other social media account.

“I worked so hard, but they kept cheating me because they thought I would not know how much we were really making. Now, I do not even have enough to rent a place.

“Someone kindly offered to rent a space for me, but I told them I want to finish building my house, even if it’s just one room, so I can finally have a place to call my own.”

Renowned for her comedic roles in Yoruba films, Aunty Ramota recently starred in Anikulapo: Rise of the Spectre, a film by acclaimed director Kunle Afolayan.
