How I Almost Lost My Life in June – Actress Adesua Etomi
Nollywood actress Adesua Etomi-Wellington has revealed that she narrowly escaped a life-threatening medical emergency in June while visiting the United Kingdom with her husband, Banky W, and their two sons.
In an emotional Instagram post, the Sugar Rush star recounted the terrifying ordeal, sharing that what began as a routine trip for two speaking engagements turned into a near-death experience that required emergency surgery.
“I could have lost my life in June,” she wrote. “What I went through was horrific and ended with an unplanned surgery — and strangely, the surgery itself was the least dramatic part of it all.”
Adesua explained that a series of perfectly timed events led to her survival, crediting divine intervention for what she described as a miraculous outcome.
“If even one single detail had been different, I wouldn’t be here today. When I think about it, I shudder,” she shared.
Reflecting on the experience, the actress said it deepened her faith and reshaped her outlook on life.
“There’s nothing anyone can tell me — God is real,” she affirmed.
Adesua concluded her message with a call for gratitude and compassion, encouraging her followers to appreciate each day and show more kindness to others.
“Let’s choose to be softer, kinder, gentler, forgiving, patient, loving, and peaceful. I’ll never take another day for granted – neither should you,” she wrote.
The revelation has since sparked an outpouring of love and support from fans and colleagues across the entertainment industry.
