Veteran Nollywood actor, Chinedu Ikedieze, aka Aki, has opened up about the challenges he faced while growing up due to his being diagnosed with stunted growth.
The actor said he became disturbed after he heard the doctor announce his condition to his mother and thought of ending his life due to the bullying from other children because he wasn’t growing normally.
He disclosed this in a recent interview with popular media personality, Chude Jideonwo.
According to Ikedieze: “Something happened when I was nine years and six months old. I remember the doctor saying to my mum; ‘Madam, what he has is stunted growth.’

He said he was grateful to his mum for standing by him through those hard times.
Ikedieze added that from the first time he met Osita Iheme, aka Pawpaw, “there was this chemistry there.”
