Wife of Nollywood actor, Leo Mezie – Maureen, has recounted how she almost abandoned her ailing husband due to pressure.

Recall that the actor was diagnosed wrongly with malaria, typhoid and pneumonia for over a year and the medications collapsed his kidneys.

He was hospitalized for several months at a London hospital until his return to Nigeria last month after recovery.

While he was critically ill and away, Maureen said she went through a lot.

In a chat with Vanguard, she said, “I had mixed- feelings, and I told God I did not want to become a widow at this age.

“I asked God to give me an assurance that he will keep my husband and sometimes fear, uncertain, so many feelings that I still can’t explain passed through my mind.

“The feeling was one of God, you can’t take him now, please show mercy. Sometimes, I was unable to figure out what was really happening.

“I tried hard to understand the situation and looking for answers that I just couldn’t find or figure out. But the only place I had in mind to take him to was God.
