She also lamented that she lost all she had worked for over the years and does not know where to start.
The visibly shaken screen star wondered what her faith and that of her sister who stays with her, will be, now that fire has raised her apartment.
She wrote:
“Everything that I have worked for in this Lagos, all my efforts to have a good place to live in this, all my late nights of hard work gone within a second.
“I’m only left with my passport. Don’t know where I and my sister can go from here. I’m lost! Someone wake me up ”
This is not the first time Didi Ekanem will suffer a loss, in 2020 she was involved in a car crash that landed her in the hospital.
She shared pictures of the damaged car and herself lying on a hospital bed on her Instagram page.
“This time last year, the devil tried it. I woke up on the morning of that day feeling very uneasy. As I was about to step out of the house, something told me to pray… then I started praying aggressively for one hour after which I got into my car and left.
“So on my way to the market, my brake failed, there was traffic on the road, and right in front of me was a school bus filled with children. I started screaming and suddenly, my car diverted and then hit the bridge pole like 3 times,” she said.
