Congratulations are in order for Nollywood actress Ini-Dima Okojie, as she announces that she is pregnant and expecting her first child with her husband, Abasi Ene-Obong.
The couple had their wedding in May 2022 across three ceremonies in Lagos.
Ini-Dima made the announcement on Wednesday, April 22, via her Instagram page. Sharing a video of her embracing her baby bump, she expressed her deep appreciation to God.
She wrote:
There are moments when words feel too small for what God has done.
This is one of those moments.
In quiet ways, in unseen ways, God has been writing a story only He could tell. A story of grace. Of love. Of perfect timing.
God has been so kind. So faithful. So intentional. And now, my heart is holding a love. I have never known before. I get to be a mother. What a miracle.
What a privilege. What a calling.
“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” …Jeremiah 1:5
Every day, I am in awe. Every day, I whisper thank you.
My body is changing, my heart is expanding, and my life will never be the same again.
And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Thank You, Jesus, for trusting me with this gift. #AChocolateLoveStory #AChocolateLoveBaby
Her pregnancy announcement has sparked an outpouring of congratulatory messages on social media.
Recall that the actress had openly talked about her struggles with fibroids since 2017, leading to a myomectomy surgery in November 2020 to remove 20 fibroids. In 2024, she revealed the fibroids resurfaced after three years, but instead of opting for another surgery, she chose a holistic approach to manage the symptoms.
