According to the actress, her experience spurred her into starting an NGO that supports women, children and the needy in the society. “Over the years, I have tried not to talk about it because my family said ‘let it go.’

Yes, I was sexually harassed,” she told Broadway TV. “I was harassed by a very famous producer, who actually put a knife to my neck. It’s a story for another day. I went through that and I actually left Nollywood at a point.”

Narrating what happened, the actress said: “A producer lured me to his house, told me to take off my clothes, put a knife to my head, what is worse than that?” She also revealed that she had to take a break from acting after the incident. “After that happened, my family said: ‘that’s it, enough of acting,” she said.
