Nollywood Veteran actor Stephen Alajemba, better known as Uwaezuoke, has narrated how he was treated differently as a child due to his facial looks and body stature.
The Akidi star during a recent episode of the Yan Kontent Factory podcast relieved his childhood memories in which he stated that many women avoided him because they thought he had an ugly face.

The 66-year-old noted that people in his community were repelled when they set their eyes on him.
Stephen Alajemba revealed that his mother never received any gift from people as they kept making excuses not to see or carry him.
The comic actor who focuses mainly on Igbo films recalled how women usually lose interest in him as soon as they see his face and his stature.
“My mother said my birth was not an easy one and what pains her the most was how her co-wives faked excitement over the news of my birth and expressed shock immediately they saw me. Any lady who sees my facial look and stature runs away. No one is better than me except Jesus,”
the actor said in parts.
Stephen has been featured in movies like Okochi, Nurse Eliza, Ihe Onye Metalu, Akonauche, Akidi and Uwaezuoke in Togo.
