Nollywood actress Shan George has made a desperate plea for help after discovering that N3.6 million vanished from her Zenith bank account on Friday.

The distraught actress took to her Instagram page to share her distress, revealing that the money was transferred to an Opay account belonging to a certain Cecilia Chiagoziem Okoro.

With her livelihood hanging in the balance, Ms George begged Zenith Bank, Opay and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for assistance, saying “That’s everything I have in my whole life. What will I eat?”

Posting the debit alert on her page, the veteran actress said she’s finding it difficult to access her app.

“I need help cos I’m dy!ng. This person has just cleared my account. Pls my pple, everyone pls help. Pls Zenith Bank, Reverse it. I can’t access my app. I’m De@D.” She said.

Zenith Bank responded to her comment, stating, “@Shanegeorgefilms, please send us a direct message.”
