Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has visited ailing Nollywood actor, Zack Orji, at the National Hospital in Abuja.
This visit did not come as a surprise, this is because Orji was very active during the 2023 presidential election. Despite the heavy criticism he received, the actor stood his ground.
Mrs. Tinubu, who was at the hospital to celebrate the first baby of the year, was accompanied by the wife of the Vice President, Hajia Nana Shettima; and the Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye.
She was also escorted by the wife of the Minister for Works, Rachael Umahi; and the wife of the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, among others.
Zack Orji’s Condition
Though the details of Remi Tinubu’s visit to the veteran actor were sketchy as of Monday, it was gathered that she was with the actor for about 13 minutes.

Orji was admitted to the National Hospital at the weekend after he slumped in his toilet.
Stable Condition
Speaking on Monday, the National Hospital Public Relations Officer (PRO), Tayo Hastrup, said Orji is now in stable condition.
“He has started talking. He is in stable condition. His wife is by his side. We really thank God for him,” he said.
