Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing has made a heartfelt public apology to the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) for her actions that led to her suspension in 2021.
The actress, overcome with emotion, begged for forgiveness at The Celebrities Entertainment Award in Canada, expressing her longing to return to the industry. Nkechi Blessing’s suspension stemmed from a social media feud with colleague Lege Miami, sparked by his perceived sympathy towards Baba Ijesha, who faced allegations of sexual assault of a minor.
In 2021, both actors were indefinitely suspended from Yoruba movie sets due to their escalating online dispute. While Lege Miami apologized, Nkechi Blessing initially disregarded TAMPAN’s notice.
Now, she seeks forgiveness, marking a turning point in her journey to redemption within the Nigerian entertainment industry. Nkechi Blessing’s apology has sparked mixed reactions, with some praising her humility and others questioning her sincerity.
