Illness
The actor who recently appeared in the recently released “Shanty Town” series admitted that he suffered from Bell’s Palsy. This disorder causes a sudden weakening of the muscles on one side of the face. During an appearance on Rubbin Minds on Channels Television, Mokeme made this known.
Bell’s palsy is a perplexing episode of facial muscular paralysis or weakening. Over 48 hours, it gets progressively worse. Damage to the facial nerve causes this disorder (the 7th cranial nerve). Usually, one side of the head or face will experience pain or discomfort. Although Bell’s palsy is not considered permanent, it occasionally does not go away. Although Bell’s palsy currently has no known treatments, healing often starts 2–6 months after the onset of symptoms. Most Bell’s palsy patients eventually regain full facial strength and expression.
Accident
Chidi Mokeme shared the details of his minor road mishap on his official Instagram page. In addition to sharing the video, he thanked his followers for their prayers, good wishes, and care. Chidi Mokeme claimed that he was trying to get to the airport in time for a connecting international flight, but he was unable to do so because of the agonizingly slow traffic. The little mishap occurred in Lagos, as he stated in his post. An unknown individual in plain clothes attempted to stop his vehicle.
He attempted to flee by jumping over a culvert and landing in the path of approaching cars. Unfortunately, the side glass of his automobile was destroyed at this point, and he heard a loud explosion. But in a subsequent article, he acknowledged that upon arriving at the airport, he had a brief window of time to evaluate the damage to his automobile.
