Popular Nollywood actor Lekan Olatunji has opened up about a traumatic period in his life, sharing emotional details of a life-threatening accident he survived in 2022, and the tragic death of his wife just a year later.
In a recent interview, the Yoruba actor revealed that the accident left him hospitalized for three months and suffering from memory loss. He described the experience as both painful and miraculous, thanking God for sparing his life.
“There was a time I had an accident, and it wasn’t easy. I was in the hospital for three months with memory loss. I thank God for His grace. Here I am doing well.”
Lekan emphasized the importance of appreciating healthcare professionals, recounting how even a doctor friend was shocked by his recovery. According to him, the doctor admitted he wouldn’t have believed his survival if he hadn’t seen the actor’s skull injury himself.
The actor went through multiple surgeries during recovery and said the healing process was extremely difficult. At the time, a video shared online showed Lekan in a hospital bed with visible bandages on his head and arms. Many fans were left in disbelief at how he managed to survive what sources described as a “ghastly crash.”
However, tragedy struck again in 2023 when Lekan lost his wife—the mother of his three children—despite spending millions of naira on her surgery and medical treatment. Sharing the heartbreaking moment, the actor said he had to accept God’s will, no matter how painful.
His story has touched many across social media, with fans and fellow actors offering prayers, encouragement, and admiration for his resilience through deep personal loss and suffering.
