How My Uncle Sexually Harassed Me As Teenager” – Actress Osoba Temitope Recounts

Temitope Osoba, a Nollywood actress, has described a traumatic incident involving sexual assault by a family member.

In an interview with Biola Bayo on her talk programme, Talk to B, the Yoruba actress, who had taken a hiatus from the industry, disclosed that she had moved out of her “toxic” grandmother’s house to stay with her uncle.

Unfortunately, things became worse for her, as her uncle sexually assaulted her and made advances towards her.

According to her, the incident had some consequences on her profession, but she was able to recover and pick up the pieces of her life.

In her words,

“My grandmother came one day and arrested me and I decided I didn’t want to stay with her, so they took me to my uncle’s house. I started living with him and he started making some advances towards me, trying to harass me sexually. And I told myself, I couldn’t go through this again.

The relationship affected my acting career to some extent, but I picked up back. 2022/2023, the Devil tried, but he didn’t win.

I suffered from depression because things became difficult for me, I couldn’t meet my needs, people were looking up to me and I wasn’t working. It got to a point that I couldn’t sleep, had to put the Bible on my chest before I could sleep peacefully cause I would always see something in the dark. I stopped functioning, couldn’t eat, brush, bathe, and all”.
