In a TikTok live interaction with YouTuber Odogwu Kiwi TV on Wednesday, January 28, 2026, the ailing Halima broke into tears as she shared that she had been ejected from her residence due to a dispute over rent arrears amounting to 2.5 million naira with her landlady.
The embattled Nollywood actress got emotional as she received donations from netizens who were sympathetic to her current plight.
Halima expressed gratitude to fans for their support and appealed to them not to abandon her amid her ongoing struggles.
She said:
"Do not abandon me at the time of my need. I am not hiding from the world that this is what I am going through. For nine years, you guys did not know. I will show you everything."
The actress noted that she had faced major difficulties securing new accommodation for herself after being evicted from her previous residence by her landlady.
Halima stated that she had received suggestions from people, but the distance to the location for a new apartment was far from where she regularly seeks treatment for her health issues.
She said:
"I have looked everywhere, and there is no house. They said I should go to Lugbe. It is too far for my treatment room in Kubwa."
The actress also thanked Odogwu Kiwi for helping her solicit funds on social media for her health issues and accommodation.
