Women rejected me due to my looks – Uwaezuoke

Veteran Nollywood actor Stephen Alajemba, also known as Uwaezuoke, has disclosed that, as a child, he faced rejection from ladies and society in general because of the way his body and face looked.

The actor said that his mother had informed him that when he was a newborn, people wouldn’t hold him because he didn’t look good.

Alajemba claimed that after hearing from his mother that he had “earned nothing good” for her as a youngster, he made a vow to her that he would make her proud.

He said ladies “run away” whenever they see his face.

The comic actor said he was unable to attract a lover until he was 20, adding that he got married to his first love at 23.

“Any lady who sees my facial look and stature runs away,” the actor said.

“Unfortunately before one accepted me I was already 20 to 22 years old. I married at 23. So the first person tasted it and confirmed it and she did not leave me anymore.”
