Nollywood star Tonto Dike has revealed that she started smoking at the age of 13 and struggled with the addiction for 27 years.
The actress, who disclosed this while sharing a testimony during a Sunday service at Streams of Joy International Church, also shared that she struggled with alcohol addiction, masturbation and prolonged anger issues.
Describing her addictions as “demonic oppression,” Dikeh attributed her freedom from the addictions to divine intervention, stressing that she started noticing changes after her spiritual life improved.
“I smoked since I was 13. God healed me from masturbation, too. I have known myself to have sexual intercourse in a dream ever since I was a child,” the actress said.
She explained that she got addicted to smoking because her father was a smoker. She urged parents not to expose their children to harmful habits.
The 40-year-old said God also recently healed her from “demonic anger,” which she said previously affected her relationships and personal life.
After the actress’ testimony, Pastor Jerry Eze, the founder, prayed for her, declaring that “the burden of sin is broken” and describing her as “a voice in her generation.”
