New photos of veteran Nollywood actor, Kenneth Aguba that surfaced on the internet have stirred concern from fans and followers.
The now viral photos show the veteran Nollywood star sitting in a shabby environment and looking downcast.
The actor, according to a well-meaning Nigerian who posted the pictures online, is currently homeless and without a place to stay.
It’s gathered that Aguba currently stays in front of the old shop where the photos were taken.
Taking to the comments, a number of social media users alleged that the report was true, and that they had seen him sleeping on the street in Enugu.
An Instagram user @omapretty_14 wrote, “That man needs help. He doesn’t have a child or wife as I heard and I have seen him at Enugu sleeping from street to shops”.

What do you expect when the industry has abandoned all old people that has been acting and as well impacting us greatly,, they now follow shadows ,,, people that fake it up and down,, I can’t even remember the last time I watched home video cos is now waste of time.
One thing that can depressed a man is after been on a light and all of a sudden no money to maintain the shine and no hope of getting work 😭😭😭 honestly I feel their pains,, I sincerely hope and pray to be a help to them
I can actually testify to this, cus I have seen him on several occasions repairing umbrellas in “Gariki Market” enugu.
I pray he will be fine
God will seriously help him
