Julius Agwu Reveals Brain Surgery Affected His Sexual Function
Nigerian comedian and actor Julius Agwu has revealed that he experienced sexual dysfunction after undergoing brain surgery in the United States in 2015. Agwu made the disclosure during a recent episode of the Beer Parlour Talk Show, where he discussed the effects of the surgery on his body, career and personal life. Responding to a question about whether the brain condition or surgery affected other parts of his body, Agwu said, “After I do am, prick no dey work again now. He no dey work.” Other guests on the programme discussed the possible connection between nerves involved in the procedure and the effects Agwu described. The comedian underwent surgery in 2015 after doctors discovered three tumours in his brain, one of which was reportedly the size of a golf ball. He has previously spoken about the health crisis and its impact on his life and career. During the programme, Agwu also reflected on his contribution to Nigerian comedy, particularly his role in developing music comedy. “Music comedy na me form am o, that is to tell you how my brain dey work,” he said. He later became emotional while discussing his career and the feeling of being abandoned by some of his friends following his health challenges. “God wey I dey serve, anybody wey get hand for wetin happen to me. I go dey look. My friends deserted me. They stopped talking to me, many of them. It is well,” Agwu said. Agwu remains a prominent figure in Nigeria’s entertainment industry, known for combining music and comedy in his performances and for his work in Nollywood.
