Yoruba actor Yomi Gold has shared his shocking experience after being hospitalized due to a life-threatening health scare that nearly claimed his life. On December 6, the actor took to social media to reveal the frightening ordeal, where a sudden headache put his life at risk.

In a heartfelt video shared from his hospital bed, Yomi Gold expressed deep gratitude for his survival, attributing his recovery to divine mercy and the quick intervention of emergency medical staff in Marrakech, Morocco. He thanked God for preserving his life and reflected on the fragility of existence, acknowledging how quickly things can change.

“Life truly lives in the seconds,” he said. “Today reminded me how fragile our breath is and how quickly everything can change. A sudden headache nearly took me out, but by God’s mercy and the swift help of the emergency team in Marrakech, I am here resting and recovering. I give thanks to God for preservation, for life, and for everyone He used to reach out, pray, and check on me. May we never take health, time, or one another for granted. Every moment is grace.”

This close call has made Yomi more appreciative of life, urging others to value their health and not take it for granted. Fans and colleagues, including actress Iyabo Ojo, have flooded his social media with messages of support, wishing him a quick recovery.

This scare comes just days after the Yoruba film industry faced the tragic loss of actress Allwell Ademola, who passed away following a heart attack.

Below are some reactions from fans:

• @iyaboojofespris: “Get well soon.”
• @babatee.1: “Great recovery, brother.”
• @iamsexysteel: “I wish you a quick recovery, bro.”
• @isaacfayoseoriginal_: “Wow, God is your strength. We were at the club together on Saturday. Please rest.”
• @makinde_abraham: “It is well, dwell more on the divine importance of God’s will; it’s a safe grace under heaven.”
• @da_undiesplace: “Thank God for your health, but guys, truth is, there’s no sudden headache without an underlying condition. Headache is only a response when the body cannot fight the issue anymore. Let’s prioritize routine checkups—BP, blood sugar—more importantly.”
• @ceo_rjj_international_venture: “Quick recovery, brother. Thank God you are in a country that works.”

Fans and industry colleagues are sending their well-wishes as the actor continues his recovery.
