Veteran Nigerian actor, Stephen Alajemba, popularly known as Uwaezuoke, has candidly shared his experiences of facing consistent rejection from women throughout his life due to his physical appearance.
From early childhood, where people refused to carry him, to adulthood, Stephen narrated how his facial looks became a significant hurdle in forming romantic relationships.
He acknowledged the challenges he encountered, with women often avoiding him because of his appearance, making it difficult to attract a romantic partner until he turned 20.
Despite these hardships, Stephen Alajemba persevered and fulfilled his promise to his mother, eventually finding love and getting married to his first love at the age of 23.
He expressed gratitude for the enduring acceptance and support from his life partner, emphasizing that the initial struggles with rejection did not prevent him from finding happiness in his personal life.
“Any lady who sees my facial look and stature runs away. Unfortunately before one accepted me I was already 20 to 22 years old. I married at 23. So the first person tasted it and confirmed it and she did not leave me anymore,” Stephen Alajemba said”.
