Popular Nigerian actor Segun Arinze has strongly refuted rumors circulating online that claim he is unwell and in need of financial help.

The misinformation began after images showing him with a bloated stomach appeared on social media, prompting widespread concern.

In an Instagram video, Segun Arinze reassured his fans that he is in excellent health. He explained that the disputed photos were taken during a movie shoot and do not reflect his real physical condition. Expressing gratitude to those who reached out in worry, he also cautioned the public against falling prey to scams.

“I want to thank my fans, friends, and associates all over the world for reaching out to me through calls and WhatsApp messages to find out how I'm doing. As you can see, I'm very fine. I'm fit as a fiddle. Those pictures flying around were taken from a film set. I don't know why some people decided to cause mischief with them. I will continue to do my work, I will continue to contribute to the growth of my industry and Nigeria. God bless you. I love you,” he stated.

The veteran actor emphasised that he does not need any financial support for medical expenses, urging everyone to verify information before acting on it.
