Tito Harrison, a veteran Nollywood actor has opened up for first time about his battle with liver disease and chronic ulcer which forced him to sell everything he ever owned, including his house and cars.
The actor in an emotional interview on Biola Bayo’s Talk To B show, broke down when narrating how everyone he knew and called friends abandoned him during the ordeal.
“I sold my house, car, and everything I had to pay hospital bills. After moving to a rented house, I couldn’t afford the rent anymore, so we had to stay at my mother-in-law’s place,” the actor revealed.

Harrison stressed that the chapter was one of the darkest moments of his life. He further appreciated his wife, who stood by him, describing her as his greatest blessing.
“The luck I had was my wife. When I was battling with liver disease and a chronic ulcer, my wife stood by me when everybody left me. It is good to have a good wife. If I come to this world again, it is my wife I will marry,” he said tearfully.
He also addressed the judgment he faced within the industry, recalling how some mocked his condition and ridiculed him in the media.
“Some people granted an interview saying, ‘It is finished for Tito Harrison, he’s now living with his mother-in-law.’ I have the testimony to that. I didn’t throw away the magazine. Even if it had been so, if you can’t rally around me, you don’t vilify me or kill my reputation,” he said.
