Veteran Nollywood actor Clem Ohameze made a heartwarming return to social media on Sunday, May 18, delighting fans and colleagues after years away from the spotlight due to serious health issues.

 

The celebrated actor reappeared during a TikTok live session, marking his first public interaction since undergoing intensive medical treatment. Wearing a cervical collar for spinal support, Clem appeared in high spirits as he interacted warmly with viewers, expressing gratitude and joy for the overwhelming support.

 

Photos shared by filmmaker Stanley Ontop further revealed Clem participating in physical therapy sessions, working diligently to regain strength and mobility.

 

Clem’s return follows a difficult medical journey that included a spinal surgery aimed at separating vertebrae 3 and 4—an issue that once led him to publicly request prayers from well-wishers.

 

Sharing the moment online, Stanley wrote:

“Nigerians in jubilation as Nollywood actor Clem Ohameze made his first appearance on the internet after so many years of medical isolation. He’s currently live on TikTok… go there and say your prayers to him. He’s recuperating so fast. Thank God he’s getting better.”

 

Many Nigerians remember the emotional moment in 2021 when Clem broke down in tears after receiving ₦8 million from Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin to fund his surgery—a gesture that touched hearts nationwide.

 

Clem Ohameze, who began his acting career in 1995, rose to fame with his iconic role in the 1999 Nollywood hit Endtime. With over 30 years in the industry, his reappearance has sparked widespread celebration, marking not just a personal comeback but a powerful reminder of resilience and hope.
