Fans of bubbly actress , Halima Abubakar , were deeply worried when pictures of her looking emaciated with her head shaved clean surfaced on the Internet earlier in the year .

The pictures were accompanied with dire rumours, with some saying Abubakar was battling with cancer.

However , the actress later confirmed to Sunday Scoop that she was only suffering from complications of a fibroid removal surgery she had earlier .

Thankfully , it seems the worst of the storm is over for Halima and she is back to her bubbly self . In an exclusive chat with Sunday Scoop , she stated that she had resumed work.

“I am back on set fully . As a matter of fact , I am currently in Accra where I went to work with Pascal Amanfo. I was on set with Mercy Johnson and some other actors ,” she said .

Speaking on what her experience on the sickbed taught her, the Kogi State – born actress said, “ I learnt that I am loved and supported.

I was overwhelmed by the outpour of love and encouragement from friends, family and fans. It really made me feel appreciated .

I am grateful to everybody who showed me love and I want them to know that I love them too .”

Advising fellow entertainers to prioritise their health , she said , “All I have to say is , take care of yourself. Don ’ t joke with anything or take things for granted , even if it’ s a headache or cold.

Treat it immediately .”
