Reflecting on the period, Ronke expressed gratitude to God and the people who refused to abandon her when she needed help.

“Thank God that He is God, and thanks to MC Oluomo and my colleagues who kept me alive today,” she said.
Ronke then gave an insight into just how expensive her treatment had become.
“Do you know what it means for someone to buy drugs worth 800,000 naira every month?” she asked.
Unexpected support from Sotayo
Amid the difficult period, Ronke also received financial support from actress Sotayo, despite their strained relationship.
She revealed that they had not spoken for about five or six years following a disagreement.
However, after Sotayo learnt about her illness, she sent Ronke N150,000.
Interestingly, Ronke admitted that the gesture did not immediately end their awkward relationship.
She said they still bypassed each other without exchanging greetings whenever they met at parties.
