Ngozi Nwosu

Ngozi Nwosu (; born 1 August 1963) is a Nigerian actress and producer. She began her acting career in Yoruba-language films, before making her home-video debut in Living in Bondage, an Igbo-language film.

Early life Nwosu, a native of Arochukwu in Abia State, southeastern Nigeria, was born on 1 August 1963. She grew up in Lagos. Her father, a Biafran veteran was killed during the Nigeria Civil War. Nwosu is fluent in Igbo, Yoruba and English languages.

Career Nwosu began her acting career while attending acting classes in school, most of which were done in Yoruba. She played "Madam V boot" in the television series, Ripples. While on set in Living in Bondage, Nwosu is attributed as being the first actress to kiss on set during her romantic session with Kenneth Okonkwo. She is also known for playing "Peace" in sitcom, Fuji House of Commotion (created by Amaka Igwe). Her character was the second wife of Chief T. A. Fuji, often shown as his favourite. Speaking on female sexual harassment in the industry, Nwosu explained that it could be fine when producers make sexual advances toward an actress, but she considers it more demeaning when the actress seduces the producer. She also stated that every actress has the right to say no to anything that is not comfortable for them. She is also on set for Ndani.

Personal life Nwosu called off her wedding two days before the event because her soon to be spouse gave her a severe beating while she was pregnant.

In 2012, Nwosu fell ill, which affected her career. The diagnosis was reported to be related to a kidney disease. She eventually got treatment in the UK through the government and some organizations. She vowed not to offer free services to her state, Abia State, because the state government abandoned her when she needed support.

Filmography Nwosu had a role in Light in the Dark (2019), a feature film that starred Joke Silvia, Rita Dominic, Angel Unigwe among others. She also appeared in The Silent Baron and Crazy Grannies.
