BB Naija star Ifuennada has revealed her battles with amnesia, mental breakdown, and spiritual attacks.
The reality star and skincare entrepreneur, who has been off social media for the past year, took to Instagram to share her story.
She disclosed how she had experienced a significant period of sickness on her birthday, but on her birthday this year (July 23), she experienced something more sinister: the loss of her memory. However, it was prayer that kept her going and saw her through.
She wrote: Over the past one and a half years, I’ve faced death, amnesia, severe mental breakdown, and intense spiritual battles that shook my existence, but Jesus saved me from them all.
Everything I experienced could make a powerful script for a blockbuster movie. I mean, there were nights I literally thought I wouldn’t make it… But Jesus held me in His arms and carried me through.
I have a lot to tell you, but let’s focus on the most recent battle that saw me endure a significant period of ill health that made me lose my memory.
After what seemed like a recovery period from the illness (which was really a spiritual attack), on July 23—my birthday this year—without any warning, I suddenly woke up with no memory of who I was. It was like an unexpected plot twist out of a thriller movie. It felt like I was on a strange planet where I had no past, knew no one, and had no purpose. I can’t even really explain it.
Not only did I forget who I was, but I also forgot who my family members were. Even after I was shown pictures and videos of them, I just couldn’t remember them or anything. It was like my entire life before July 23, 2025, was wiped clean.
My mother, a prayer warrior and a servant in God’s house, was privy to the spiritual attacks I was experiencing, so she was always praying for me, and she also got me medical help.
I myself didn’t relent in prayer, although I was quite depressed because there were times I felt powerless. Considering my relationship with God felt strong, I didn’t fully understand why I was going through all that. I was moving from one battle to another, and it was exhausting, but I didn’t lose hope.
It’s important to note that during the period I suffered amnesia, through the help of the Holy Spirit, I did not forget God. I remembered there was someone called “Holy Spirit”, Jesus, and God. Then I remembered my name — Faith (the F in Ifu), and I remembered its definition in Hebrews 11:1. I also remembered Jesus’ words in John 16:33, and I prayed Psalms 91 and 35.
