According to her, she had a manic episode that lasted for months. She loitered streets, hotels and beaches of Lagos for days. She added that she used the fake ID to travel to Ghana by boat.

“Using this “made-up” Identity card of me from one of my imaginary companies; I headed for Ghana by boat. Clad in black jalabia, I kept moving. I passed border after border; terrified & unrecognized. In that moment, I was a “Drifter”, she said.

The actress said she had woken up one early morning at 3 am and felt unsafe at home, so she ran to a motor park in Asaba and subsequently travelled to Lagos.

Furthermore, she said that she was able to regain her memory at First Bank plc Ghana through the help of their staff, Esther.

She added that Esther recognized her and helped her remember herself and her home.

“One year later, I’m thankful to have survived one of my craziest episodes ever recorded,” she wrote.
