How my state abandoned me during illness – Ngozi Nwosu painfully recalls.

Ngozi Nwosu speaks on how fame helThis experience, she revealed, prompted her decision to seek compensation for any future engagements with the state.

“I have personally made a pact that there is nothing my state can call me for that I would attend for free,” Ngozi stated firmly.

“They will pay through their nose for me to be there. I am from Arochukwu Local Government, Abia State.”

The movie star recalled how help eventually came through a fan in Lagos who referred to her as her “favourite actress” and reached out to the Lagos State Government on her behalf.

"It was my fame from acting that ultimately helped me when I was in need,” she explained.

“The person who contacted the Lagos government did so because she was a fan. When she found out I was ill, she called on the Lagos authorities to save my life.”

In 2022, she revealed that the speculations surrounding her health condition drove her into depression. She said in part:

“There was rumour that I’d died, there was rumour I was in Germany while I was in my house.

Nothing pains like when a journalist decides to kill you and kill you from your very before with ‘and from the horse’s mouth’. Now who is the horse, who is the mouth? Oh God!

Or is it when I traveled to London for my treatment, the lady I took with me, the family now called her and said ‘o ti lo ta kidney e’ (you have gone to sell your kidney).”

Ngozi began her acting journey in Yoruba language films.

She however made her iconic home-video debut in Living in Bondage.

She has also featured in music videos for Chidinma Ekile, Fair Prince and Davido among others.
