Nollywood actress Adesua Etomi-Wellington has opened up about a near-death experience that left her shaken but deeply thankful for her life.
In a heartfelt post shared on Instagram, the mother of two revealed that she went through a frightening medical emergency while in the United Kingdom with her husband, Banky W, and their sons.
The incident, which happened in June, led to an unplanned surgery she says could have cost her life. She wrote:
“I could have lost my life in June of this year. I went through a horrific incident that landed me in unplanned surgery. The surgery was ironically the least dramatic part of what I went through.”
The movie star who relocated to the UK with her family a few years ago, explained that she was in the UK for two speaking engagements when the ordeal began. Looking back, she said she believes divine intervention was the only reason she survived.
“If even one single detail had been different, I wouldn’t be here today. When I think about it, I shudder,”
she admitted.

The Sugar Rush actress said the experience renewed her faith and deepened her sense of gratitude, describing it as both terrifying and transformative.
“Like a map, I can literally look back over that day and trace how His hands were all over that situation. There’s nothing anyone can tell me — God is real,”
she declared.
Reflecting on what she called a second chance at life, Adesua urged her followers to live intentionally and with compassion.
“Let’s choose to be softer, kinder, gentler, forgiving, patient, loving, and peaceful,” she wrote. “I’ll never take another day for granted — neither should you.”
Adesua, known for being open about her personal struggles, had earlier this year shared how she battled hyperemesis during pregnancy, supported her husband through surgery for a cancerous tumor, and underwent an emergency C-section in 2024.
