Susan Pwajok, a well-known Nollywood actress, has described how Boko Haram destroyed her family’s home in Jos, Plateau State, while they were inside.
She claimed they managed to flee.
Susan, speaking on the newest edition of her podcast Surviving Lagos with her mother Carol Pwajok, claimed the perpetrators also set fire to her grandfather’s vehicles and all of their assets.
She said:
“I was in Jos, Boko Haram attacked our house. They burnt our house down to the ground and we were in the house. I was with my cousins. My mum was in Lagos.
“Me, my grandparents and my two cousins, we crawled to the garden to hide and watched the house burn down. They burnt my grandfather’s hilux, benz, and all our properties. Imagine your whole life just coming down. Because that was my childhood house. We had to rebuild the house.”

In other news, Michelle Dede, a Nigerian actress, has revealed how she nearly had her leg amputated as a result of an accident.
Dede expressed thankfulness for being able to walk again following her trauma.
She stated that God intervened in her case and stopped the devil.
In a recent Instagram post, she described her story, revealing that in January, despite her enthusiasm for an impending part in a Netflix series, she was brought to the hospital with copious bleeding.
Michelle Dede claimed that January was filled with tears, anguish, and denial as she dealt with the physical and emotional consequences of her health issue.
She was hospitalized and faced with the arduous job of learning to walk again, but she persevered through the darkest days, and now she can walk again thanks to a thrice-weekly physiotherapy session.
Michelle Dede wrote:
“One day in January, I’m excited about what the new year holds and getting ready to be on an EbonyLife/ Netflix series, the next I’m being rushed to hospital bleeding profusely after an accident, then a week later being told they may have to amputate my leg. Like he did in the past 3 years, God said not today!
“After the tears, pain and being in denial for the first week my January was spent partly in the hospital, struggling through mental, emotional and physical pain, learning personal lessons and learning to walk again. Over the last 2 months and after thrice weekly physiotherapy sessions I can finally do so.
“Grateful to God and thankful to everyone who constantly checked up on me, came to visit me in hospital and at home, and especially thankful to and for @NajiteDede who took care of me like I was a child for almost a month.
“Lord I know on December 31 I posted that I was a warrior, but it’s time to take me off your strongest soldiers list abeg.
“I prophesy that this March onwards I am surrounded by protection, abundance, ease, flow, joy and everything soft in Jesus name, Amen!”
The Flower Girl actress concluded with the promise of giving out her clutches and orthopedic boots to those in need of it. Michelle Dede added:
“PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT ON MY PAGE NEXT WEEK AS I WILL BE DOING A GIVEAWAY OF MY CRUTCHES AND ORTHOPEDIC BOOT, TO ANY ORGANISATION IN NIGERIA THAT NEEDS THESE FOR YOUNG ADULTS,”
