The 43-year-old comedian said, "All I remember was I woke up in the hospital and heard the story of my being in coma. I lost my memory."

His wife said, "he had no recollection of who came to see him the day after.

When I come most times he looks at me like he's trying to figure out who I am."

Julius’ wife, Ibiere and his sister Theresa also shared that the incident got to a point where he was almost taken to the mortuary.

"So now I am going to be a widow, how do I manage with these children?" Ibiere stated were her thoughts at the time.

Julius added, "the MRS Scan revealed I had three tumours in my brain."

“I started looking for my property documents to give to my wife. One day when they were not home, I almost committed suicide.” Julius stated in the interview.

Following a successful surgery in Houston, America in 2015, the dad of two dropped a thanksgiving song titled 'Second chance' and also vowed to use all his platforms to glorify God.

Last year, the father of two was also hospitalised in London for stress-related issues however he has since recovered and is hale and hearty.
