Nigerians have expressed disappointment at the refusal of movie stars and other celebs to contribute to the fund aimed at cushioning the effect of the death of late Adah Ameh on her mother.
Actress, Empress Njamah, had some weeks ago taken to her Instagram page to announce a fundraising scheme for the mother of the late thespian.
However, in the spirit of transparency, Njamah returned to social media to share a list of those who have contributed money so far.

According to the 40-year-old actress, a sum of N278k has so far been realised, she also eulogised and thanked all those who contributed.
She wrote, “To all those who made donations, thanks for the true and genuine love. Almighty God bless you all, thanks for the support.
“I honestly can’t do this without you guys. My team and I will be transparent to the end for reasons best known to us…”
“Kindly let us know if your name was wrongly spelt so we can correct it.
“(For those who didn’t see the donation post we just posted it again)
“FOR THE LOVE OF ADA AMEH ….”
A curious check of the list she posted, however, revealed that those who responded to her clarion call, are mostly ordinary Nigerians, there was no name of any known or popular celebrity sighted by TheNiche.
Reacting to the post, members of the online community expressed shock, wondering why they didn’t spot the names of any celebrity or some self-professed friends of Ameh while she was alive.
A netizen identified as endy.brown.319 wrote, “I like as you post this for every one to see. I no see any celebrity name here abi my eyes dey deceive me?”
Another one, blessingozoemena said: “So where are all the people crying and carrying her picture. Where all the blue tick.”
One who wondered why the list excluded names of known celebs said, “Eeeiii so all those big celebrities didn’t contribute hmmm .”
Another Instagram user known as sylviakanu_chika, added, “Celebrities don back off .”
