Actor Godwin Nnadiekwe Hospitalized After Unexpected On-Set Injury

Nollywood actor Godwin Nnadiekwe suffers from internal bleeding after an unscripted kick during filming. The incident highlights concerns about set safety.

Actor Godwin Nnadiekwe is currently hospitalized after an alarming incident on a film set that has raised serious concerns about safety protocols in Nollywood. The actor shared his distressing experience online, revealing that he was unexpectedly kicked in the chest by his colleague, Zubby Michael, during a filming session. Godwin emphasized that this action was not part of the script and had not been directed by the filmmaker. The sudden and painful blow left him with severe chest pain, which he had to address without any assistance from the production team. He sought medical care on his own, without receiving first aid or support from the set.

In a follow-up statement from his management, it was confirmed that Godwin’s condition worsened, leading to his hospitalization. He is now being treated for internal bleeding as a result of the injury. The post, which included a video capturing the intense moment, caused online users to speculate that Zubby Michael was involved, although Godwin did not specifically call out his colleague.

Godwin used the opportunity to call for improvements in on-set safety, urging producers and actors to prioritize health and safety, especially in an industry where many film sets lack insurance, medical backup, or proper safety measures. He expressed concern about the potential consequences of such incidents, noting the absence of precautions that could have made a difference in preventing serious injury.
