She emphasized the urgent need for financial assistance to cover specialized care, medications, and potential surgeries.
In light of this, Semevo’s colleagues, including veteran actress Edinam Atatsi, have visited him in the hospital and are actively soliciting funds for his treatment. They are appealing to the public for support during this critical time.
