This light skin Nollywood actor, Ikem Chude has picked June 16 wedding date. The actor will walk down the aisle with his beautiful wife at Sign Fireman Miracle Crusade, Aguda, Surulere, Lagos. They had their traditional marriage last week in his wife’s home town. Ikem Chude was one of the hottest dudes in movie industry three years back before he went out of the scene. Sources disclosed that the actor fell sick as far as becoming blind before he left the industry.


Mr. Chude's disclosed to Julia Blaise Blog (JBB) that his quest for restoration of health, took him to Pastor Fireman who not only healed his blindness but also converted him to his church permanently. Within three years, Mr. Chude has become one of the pastors in the church, as he is now in charge of Mushin branch of the church.


The actor turned pastor disclosed that he will return to movie industry immediately after his wedding, this time as a reformer not entertainer. “I have gotten scripts already, but I need to settle down first. I am producing my own movie immediately after my wedding. I want to take Christian movies to the next level, not religious.”

“For 11 months I faced blindness with 3 surgeries. Doctors told me they couldn’t help me. Finally, I got my healing through Dr. Fireman’s Ministry. He just said, “Jesus” and I saw clearer than I have ever seen in my life. Since then I stayed put in the church. Today, God uses me to heal and perform miracles just like every member of our church. I was ordained on October 30, 2012,” he stated.


However, on how he became blind, Chude stated: "It started like a migraine. The first day I felt sign of blindness was on a movie set in Enugu state. Just like a flash of lightening, I lost my sight for few seconds with this migraine I cannot explain. I did not understand what happened but I was fine, so I continued. It kept happening once in a while. Then it got severe, so I went for sever tests and searched for medical help. 

"The tests had different results, they told me to seek spiritual help because it was mysterious, and I did that. I went to many churches but my case grew worse. Sometimes I wake up and won't see for hours, my vision will be blurred, later it will partially clear. It was like hell. I knew I had to quit and hide, because cannot afford to let my Mum see me in that condition.

I lived in that pains till I had an unforgettable encounter with 'The God of Dr Fireman". Just within few seconds and one word, "Jesus", I saw clearly than I have ever seen in my life."
