Nigerian teen actress Uche Treasure recently amazed her fans by taking her first-ever award to veteran actor Nkem Owoh for his blessing.
The teen actress expressed her gratitude for being honored by an awarding body in Italy and shared a heartfelt moment on her official Instagram page.
In the video, Uche Treasure is seen meeting Nkem Owoh and presenting her award to him, requesting his blessings and prayers. She explained to Owoh that she had not posted the award anywhere because she wanted an elder to bless it first.
The touching gesture highlighted her respect for the legendary Nollywood actor and her desire for his guidance in her burgeoning career.
In her Instagram post, Treasure wrote:
"I got my first ever award in ITALY a while back and it is with immense joy in my heart that I say thank you to everyone that has one way or the other contributed to bringing me this far! It is the way you all rate me that gave me the privilege of being RECOGNIZED ABROAD by @nollywoodtravelfestival! Thank you."
The award from the Nollywood Travel Film Festival in Italy underscores her rising status as an international star.
Nkem Owoh, known for his iconic roles in films such as "Osuofia in London," has been a significant figure in Nollywood, making Treasure's gesture even more poignant.
Fans and colleagues have poured in their congratulations and expressed admiration for her humility and respect for industry veterans.
