A notable personality in Nollywood, Genevieve Nnaji, has made a stunning return to the limelight after a year-long hiatus from the big screen.
With 8.4 million Instagram followers eagerly anticipating her next move, the actress has resurfaced at the Toronto International Film Festival, she premiered her latest movie “I Do Not Come to You By Chance” last weekend.
The film is a standout feature in the esteemed festival’s 2023 Centrepiece programme, and was co-produced by Chinny Carter and Chioma Onyenwe, with a compelling script penned by the talented duo, Chika Anadu and Ishaya Bako. Additionally, the “Lion Heart” star has returned to social media, sharing a captivating new selfie with her followers. Her colleagues have warmly welcomed her return, making it a worth celebration.
Leading the pack was Ini Edo, who wrote “Hey honey”, while Mercy Eke called her “The Queen.” Uche Jombo described Genny as “Asa bekeee (beautiful woman)”, Rachael Okonkwo said “My Ijele’ , while Annie Dibia called her “ A queen and More.”
Songstress Waje wrote, ‘My queen’ adding “It’s so good to see you . Love you always.” Just as Mary Igwe wrote, “ The most beautiful, welcome back my Queen.” Others that celebrated the ageless actress include, Iyabo Ojo, Stella Damasus, Funke Akindele, Destiny Etiko among others.
Genny’s resurfacing at the festival after almost one year of disappearing has put to rest the issue of her mental health that dominated discourse on social media last year.
The actress raised concerns days after her birthday in May 2022, when she deleted all her Instagram posts and unfollowed everyone. Since then, the actress went underground. It was rumoured that Genny later relocated to the United States.
