Yoruba Nollywood actress Motilola Akinlami marked her birthday on January 21, 2025, with a heartfelt reflection on her near-death experiences and triumphs over adversity. Taking to her verified Instagram page, the actress expressed gratitude for surviving numerous attacks and threats to her life, making this year’s celebration especially meaningful.
Motilola revealed she spent 28 days in the hospital and decided to share her story publicly before anyone could mourn her. She urged her followers to join her in thanksgiving while promising to provide more details about her ordeal in due time.
In her post, she wrote:
“This BIRTHDAY is a special one because I’m alive, because I survived numerous attacks and plenty threats to life. This isn’t a post to join the popularity contest—it’s so that everyone who sees this post will say, ‘Thank you God for Motilola.’ This post isn’t announcing the end of my life. E bami dupe lowo Olorun. 28 days at the hospital no be joke. Story dey come. For now, just say THANK YOU LORD. ENEMIES, SE E FE GBO... MO FO TI.”
The actress accompanied her message with a video showing her gratitude to God while emotional music played in the background.
Motilola’s resilience has resonated with many, especially as she has faced significant challenges in her career. In 2024, the actress accused fellow Nollywood figures Kunle Afod and Desola Afod of sabotaging her career. She alleged that Kunle Afod blocked opportunities for her by influencing colleagues like Femi Adebayo and Joke Jigan to avoid working with her.
Despite being spiritually, physically, and emotionally shaken, Motilola remains steadfast in her gratitude and determination. Her story of survival and perseverance has inspired fans and colleagues, who have joined her in celebrating her strength and thanking God for her life.
