Screen diva and mother of two, Chioma Akpotha has flooded her Instagram page with stunning photos of herself as she celebrates her birthday today.

The beautiful actress took to her Instagram page expressing her gratitude to God, saying there were times she felt like giving up,stressing that she has been down and out.

According to her: ”I would be a liar if I told you everything was fine with me. I would be telling a lie if I also told you that there weren’t times I just wanted to give up and throw in the towel.Times when I felt I had given all and gotten absolutely nothing in return.

“I wouldn’t be truthful if I told you that I don’t need help most times and that all was rosy and dandy.Truth is I have been down and out.Tossed up and down and almost to the ground.Been lied on, bad mouthed, talked ill about. Misunderstood most times

Abused For the heck of it Confused most times

BUT when I look back, all I see is a HAND!

The hand that has held and supported me through it all…guiding , protecting and shielding K. A. C. H. U. K. W. U

The hand that does me good and has kept me and all that I call mine safe.

As I celebrate my birthday today, I just want to say I’m grateful and thankful to you Jesus!

Continue to take all the glory!”.

In 2007, Akpotha won the Africa Movie Academy Award for Best Actress in a leading role. She also clinched the Afro Hollywood award for best actress in a lead role in 2010.
