Tonto Dikeh has announced her third liposuction surgery.

She announced this in a video detailing her entering and being in the theatre for the surgery that she posted on her Instagram page.

She explained that she had been attempting to burn her ‘stubborn’ tummy fat, adding ”it has not been easy”.

The actress/politician said that after undergoing the first surgery, she was careless with the healing process.

She wrote: “Finally sharing this exciting news l have aggressively tried to burn my stubborn tummy fat, but it has not been easy. After my first Lipo, I was so careless with my healing process and I lost guard on my stomach. So it grew back.

On her Facebook page, she shared the same video and captioned it: “AND I DECIDED TO GO FOR MY LIPOSUCTION AGAIN!!!”

Others hailed her for such a brave and choice move, wishing her success in the process.
