Veteran Nollywood actress Ngozi Nwosu has narrated a personality experience on how she was given a resounding slap over a role she played in a movie.
The revelation was made during an interview on the Talk to B podcast with her younger colleague, Biola Bayo.
Ngozi Nwosu recounted the incident, which occurred at Lawanson bus stop when she was still struggling financially.
She said a man approached where she was standing, slapped her and called her names for a character’s actions in a film. He seemed to believe she was truly “wicked” and a “killer” due to her on-screen persona.
Ngozi Nwosu said she was left dazed and shocked, and the encounter made her more cautious and aware of her surroundings. In the actress’s words:
“I have so many unforgettable experiences, is it about life or in this industry? I’ll share a story from when I just started newly. I had the experience at Lawanson bus stop precisely, that time I was going to catch a bus; you know, I had no money at that time so I was going to get a bus, and a guy walked up to me and the next thing he did was to give me a dirty slap.
“I won’t lie o I was dazed, and I was wondering, ‘What did I do to deserve this one?’ He started screaming, You’re a wicked woman!! For what you did to lagbaja, you are a killer.”
“In a movie?” Biola, the host, asked in shock.
“Yes o,” she confirmed and continued:
“because he watched me being mean to someone in a movie. He was saying, ‘Don’t worry, I will tell my wife that I have retaliated.’ People around were asking him if he was okay and why he would slap a woman that way. He was adamant o, saying, I’m too wicked.”
Nwosu said:
“That is an experience I will never forget and it made me walk and watch my back. I became very cautious of where I would go. After that, I became a taxi freak.”
