Veteran Nigerian comedian and actor Julius Agwu has made a courageous and emotional revelation regarding his health, disclosing that he lost sexual function following his life-saving brain surgery in the United States in 2015.
Speaking during a candid episode of the Beer Parlour Talk Show, the pioneer of music comedy opened up about the lasting physical, emotional, and career impacts of removing three brain tumors—one of which was reported to be the size of a golf ball. When asked by the host if the brain condition or subsequent medical procedure affected other aspects of his health, Agwu frankly admitted in Pidgin English that his intimate health suffered severe complications.
Fellow guests on the show, including comedian Mr Patrick, discussed how nerve pathways connected to the brain were affected during the delicate surgical procedure, linking the medical intervention directly to nerve damage and erectile dysfunction.
The conversation turned deeply emotional as the Crack Ya Ribs convener reflected on how his life altered after the diagnosis. Agwu broke into tears while recalling how several close associates and industry friends deserted him during his most challenging health and financial trials.
“God wey I dey serve, anybody wey get hand for wetin happen to me, I go dey look. My friends deserted me. They stopped talking to me, many of them,” Agwu shared, expressing gratitude for surviving the major medical ordeal despite the personal sacrifices.
His brave disclosure has sparked widespread sympathy and support across social media, with fans and entertainment stakeholders praising his honesty and resilience.
