Nollywood actress and politician, Tonto Dikeh, has opened up about her determination to live a long and healthy life after revealing she has a ‘bad heart’.

The actress took to her Instagram account on Thursday to make this known.

She said she wants to live long, adding that her primary purpose in life is to ensure that she can be there for her son.

Tonto wrote: “As part of my birthday gift to myself, I have decided to LIVE A LONG LIFE by gifting me a membership to a gym.

“I am a 38 years old woman with a bad heart. This is not fun, nor do I like it here, but it’s my third day, and I can only say I breathe better, my pulse is open, my blood is pumping, and I am overall in pain. But I have a goal.”

“I have a dream “To live a long and healthy life for my son.”

She also said that she will always be a surgery girl.

“If you are looking for motivation today, let me be yours. I am the laziest woman on earth when it comes to fitness, but what I have is extreme strength. I love being lazy. It’s my comfort zone. But I am here today.”
