Wednesday, October 28 2026 - Veteran Nollywood actor Tito Harrison has shared the heartbreaking story of his battle with liver disease and chronic ulcer, revealing how the health crisis left him bedridden and financially bankrupt.
Speaking in an emotional interview on Biola Bayo’s podcast, Harrison
disclosed that he was forced to sell his house, cars, and personal belongings
to cover mounting hospital bills.
Eventually, he and his wife had to move into her mother’s
house after they could no longer afford rent.
The actor, known for his roles in classic Yoruba films,
credited his wife for being his pillar of strength through the ordeal.
“When I was battling with liver disease and a chronic ulcer,
my wife stood by me when everybody left me. It is good to have a good wife,” he
said. “If I come to this world again, it is my wife I will marry.”
Harrison expressed disappointment in the Nollywood
community, stating that rather than offer help, some of his colleagues
ridiculed his condition publicly.
“There was a time they interviewed someone, and he said, ‘Tito
Harrison is finished. He’s now living
in his wife’s mother’s house.’ Even if it’s true, must you say it? If you can’t
rally around me, at least don’t destroy my name.”
