Nigerian comedian and actor Julius Agwu has disclosed that he experienced loss of sexual function following brain surgery he underwent in the United States in 2015. Agwu made the revelation during a recent episode of the Beer Parlour Talk Show while discussing the long-term impact of his health challenge.
The entertainer underwent surgery after doctors reportedly discovered three tumours in his brain, including one said to be about the size of a golf ball. During the programme, other participants discussed a possible connection between nerve involvement during the procedure and the condition Agwu described, although no independent medical assessment establishing the precise cause was presented.
Agwu also reflected emotionally on the effect of his illness on his career and personal relationships, saying some friends stopped communicating with him during the difficult period. He further spoke about his contribution to Nigerian entertainment, particularly his early work combining music and comedy.聽
