“I was so pissed, I felt used and taken for granted but I moved on,” she wrote.
However, a few days ago, the actress said that a mother reached out to her, who had a similar issue – her son was sick and needed help.
Tonto Dokeh said she ignored the messages and deleted them, thinking it was another scam. But, she stated that 24 hours after receiving the message, the mum reached out once again informing him that her son had passed.
“My eyes hurt from crying. My heart aches so bad. I will hate myself for a very long time… See the amount of damage one person’s lies and choices have caused… My heart goes out to everyone going thru one thing or the other,” she added.
Tonto Dikeh stated that this is an experience that is not one that she will easily forget.
“I will beat myself up for this for as long as I stop feeling guilt but the person who made me ignore that message I pray you suffer more than the grieving mothers,” she added.
