Actress Idia Asien discloses how acc!dent changed her perspective towards PWDs

Popular actress Idia Asien has opened up about how a life-threatening accident has transformed her perspective on people with disabilities (PWD).

In a recent interview with Pulse Nigeria, Asien revealed that she was involved in a severe accident last year that left her unable to walk for a period of time.

The experience, she said, gave her a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities.

She disclosed this during an interview with Pulse Nigeria, shared on Wednesday, 12th of March 2025

She said:

“Last year I had an accident and I couldn’t walk, and I realised, wait what? Imagine being born blind, imagine being crippled, these people don’t have a say in how their lives go, so since then, my focus now is different.

“It really wakes you up, you think you’re woke, but there are some experiences that will really jolt you to life and make you realise that you’re very lucky, so now I’m focused on people with disabilities as well, we just do our path, it’s a duty.

“It’s not something you do because you have to, and for people that also say people are recording it for attention, at least we’re doing something that’s number one, number two if you don’t record, if you don’t show what you’re doing, how are you accountable? You have to be accountable so it also encourages people to do it as well.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>>
