Nollywood actress, Angela Okorie, has opened up about ongoing health challenges stemming from a 2019 assassination attempt, revealing that bullet fragments remain lodged in her head nearly six years after the attack.
In a video shared on her Instagram page on July 14, 2025, the actress posted clips of her recent hospital visits, showing her undergoing several medical tests and scans. She explained that she has been dealing with troubling symptoms over the past two weeks, prompting her doctors to place her on bed rest.
“The last two weeks have been so hectic, lovers,” she said. “I haven’t been feeling too well, so my doctor advised I should be placed on bed rest… I went for my check-ups, and it was found that there are still fragments of bullet pellets in my head. As years go by, more still come out.”
Angela Okorie survived a gun attack in December 2019, when suspected gunmen targeted her while she was returning from a performance. She had previously shared that she was shot multiple times, and X-rays at the time revealed numerous bullet fragments in her skull.
Many of her followers have since taken to her social media page to send their prayers and words of encouragement, expressing hope for her full recovery.
