“I can’t believe this!” — Nkechi Blessing lands dream role in Mo Abudu film

Nkechi Blessing Sunday is clearly in a celebratory mood right now and for good reason.

The Nollywood star recently shared her excitement after landing a role in an upcoming project by media mogul Mo Abudu.

The film, titled The Secret Life of Baba Segi’s Wives, is already generating buzz as one of the most anticipated releases.

Taking to her page, Nkechi opened up about how surreal the opportunity feels. According to her, she initially thought the call inviting her for a reading was a mistake.

But everything changed when she showed up and met Mo Abudu in person.

She described the encounter warmly, saying she met “the most beautiful, soft, kind, warm, and very, very welcoming woman” she has ever seen. Even though she tried to stay composed, she admitted that deep down, she was overwhelmed with excitement.
In her words:

“And God said at his own appointed time, I will make it happen.

After so many years in this industry, I, Nkechi Blessing Sunday, am finally having a spot at the top, I mean me? A cast in the most anticipated movie of the year? I mean, a @moabudu Production? Somebody pinch me.

When I got this call to come in for a reading, I thought they had dialled the wrong number.

I couldn’t sleep, so I woke up earlier than usual so that I won’t run late. I walked into that room where I met the most beautiful, soft, kind, warm, and very, very welcoming woman I’ve ever met, Mummy @moabudu. I tried to maintain steeze and composure, but inside me, I wanted to scream.

I have a whole lot to type, but I will stop here and wait for the day this movie hits the cinema.

No matter what you think you are doing, be very good at it and stay focused. Trust me, so many people are watching, and to you all who called me a failed actress at every given opportunity.

This year 2026 you will eat your words and drink your tears, as long as GOD is still seated on the throne of mercy, I Nkechi Blessing Sunday will continue to excel, prosper and walk into every room full of opportunities, and to my dearest @mimi_bartels You will call one, and one million will answer.

I really do not have the right words right now, but God, in his infinite mercy, will guide, provide, and protect you and your generation yet unborn.

THANK YOU is never enough. This Orphan is forever grateful”.

Beyond celebrating her win, Nkechi also used the moment to encourage others to stay focused and committed to their craft, reminding her followers that persistence eventually pays off even after years of criticism.

For her, this role isn’t just another job it’s a major milestone and proof that her hard work is finally being recognized.
