Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday recently opened up about why she stepped away from the movie scene for a while. According to the actress, someone quietly stepped into her life and changed her financial reality with a generous weekly allowance.
In a chat on the show Curiosity Made Me Ask, hosted by Bae U Barbie, Nkechi shared that she was struggling to make decent money from acting, despite putting in a lot of work. She revealed that many of the film projects she took on barely gave her a profit of ₦1 million, which left her questioning if it was worth the stress.
Things took a turn when an anonymous individual decided to support her financially by offering her ₦1 million every week. This unexpected boost gave her the breathing space she needed and helped her realise she didn’t have to keep accepting underpaid roles just to stay visible.
“Someone anonymously put me on a ₦1 million weekly salary because I wasn’t getting paid enough for movie roles — that’s why I took a break from acting,” she explained. For her, the decision was not just about the money, but also about self-worth and knowing when to stop working just to survive.
Nkechi’s revelation has stirred conversations online, with many fans praising the mystery benefactor and others wondering who could be behind such generosity. While she didn’t mention if she plans to return to acting anytime soon, the actress seems to be in a much better place financially.
For now, her story serves as a reminder of how tough the entertainment industry can be — and how sometimes, help comes from the most unexpected places.
