How Patience Ozokwor Abandoned Nollywood After Getting Born Again by CNNReporter: 3:58pm On May 23, 2016



Veteran Nollywood Star, Patience Ozokwor aka Suzzy famously known for her ‘Wicked Mother-In-Law’ roles in movies is now a born again christian to the core, Patience now goes about preaching and conducting crusades.

In an interview with Starttells, at a crusade organised by St. Marks Anglican Church in Eziobodo Village of Imo State, where she shared her Salvation Experience.

According to her, she normally organises a personal retreat for herself in the first few days of the new year, when it was time to have her 2016 retreat, she heard the voice of the Holy Spirit telling her to fast for 21 days, she complained that she has so many projects to handle, endorsements and movies to shoot within
that period, and the Lord extended it to a 30
days fast due to her complaints.

During this fasting period, The Lord revealed to her, how she will be a voice for him all over the world, how people’s attention
will be channeled from her image on Nollywood
to The Gospel.She said
one of the things God warned her on, was her
dressing and appearance.

She said that Putting on
Makeup, wearing Jewelry and putting on
Trouser as a Lady is
wrong, she said that
she has been preaching
to colleagues in Nollywood, but God told
her to put off her Dreads, to stop wearing Jewelries and Trousers, that she could have gone to Hell, if she died December 31, 2015 despite the preaching she’s been doing, just because of her appearance.

She asked the Holy Spirit to prove to her,
give strong reasons, why that was a Sin, and Spirit of God replied
that she should browse
about it, that Testimonies of personal revelations God gave to people are all over the internet, and all of them are saying virtually the same thing, that she should find those informations to help her life.

She made mention of her Social Class, how the creme de la creame
of the society, will
attend her funeral and
how such event won’t
be a reflection of the
position of her soul.
She subsequently got
to the internet and read
testimonies of God’s
encounter with people,
she read about an Igbo
Woman God encountered, and a
Woman called Margaret
from Edo State, who
could have gone to Hell
for hating her Husband.
She said that people in
Church are making God
cry, due to their dressing, their loose life
and conduct.

After that encounter, she gave herself to
spirit filled pastors for
follow-up.

She further outlined
what makes God weep,
from Galatians 5: 16-20
and also took time to
explain how a parent-
children relationship
ought to be.

On this, she said that
some of the terrible
things children do, is a
mirror of what their
parents do. She went
on to cite an example of a Pastor’s wife, buying short dress for her daughter, but will still come to the church and condemn such dressing.

When asked about her
Nollywood life, Patience
Ozokwor narrated that
the Holy Spirit has not
specifically directed her
to quit or to not.

She said that she has
not shot any movie
since that encounter in
January, that she used
to get an average of 1.5
Million Naira weekly, but
that God has miraculously been
providing her daily bread.

She warned that it will
be harder for colleagues
in the movie industry,
with permanent tattoos and eyebrows
when they eventually
encounter Christ.

She also said that she
should stop being referred to as Mama G,
as that name was for
when she was in the
world.

We went further to ask
about her immediate
family reactions to her
new found faith, to
which she answered
that her daughter was
upset with her, telling
her that spirituality is a
thing of the heart, and
it doesn’t need to
affect her dress code.

Patience Ozokwor
replied her daughter
that she should be left
alone with her Jesus.

The brother also
thought that she was mad, on hearing the news, and had to call
her to confirm that she
is mentally sound.
She also said that she is happy her Son who
plays football in Europe
is now born again.

Among other things she pointed was her
Anglican Church and SU
History, How Christian
Association of Nigeria
gave her a bible and
many other things.

She also talked about a
Muslim leader, who said
they have Nigeria in
their hands, Fulani
Herdsmen, and their
deadly strategies. She
cited example with
Turkey (Istanbul) a
Christian turned Muslim
country.

She also said that Islam
is ready to take over
the world, but our problem is that Christians can easily
lose their faith for
money.
