Uche Elendu: Actress Reveals How A Dream Led Her To Feed Lagos Slum

Nollywood actress, Uche Elendu, has opened up on the motive behind her storming a Lagos slum few days ago to feed the less privileged on her birthday.
She said that she was acting on a dream she had because failure to do so could have dire consequences.

She told Inside Nollywood, “I took this step because of the dreams I had. I rarely remember my dreams but anytime I do, it is a message and if it’s a bad one and not acted upon, it comes to pass.
“On my second daughter’s birthday eve, I had a dream, and in that dream, I was looking everywhere for her. Then I saw her on the television with helpless children playing with and giving them food and cake.
 
“In that dream, I ran to the kitchen only to find out that all the food we made for her birthday party were all gone. Then when she saw me, she said ‘mummy, I am having the best party of my life’. I woke up, but I couldn’t do anything because I wasn’t financially capable then, so I decided to register a Foundation for her, and to the best of my financial ability, reach out to the needy in every way I can in her name so she can grow up with it since that is God’s message for her. I took that step to feed the hungry for my daughter, under her NGO.”

She insisted that her failure to act on bad dreams usually had consequences but fell short of sharing an intimate example, noting that her parents would not approve of her spilling such information.

 

She explained further, “I get scared when I see something bad in my dreams, but once I pray about it, I know it’s settled, so I try not to forget. If it’s so bad, I make sure I pray fervently and avoid the circumstances that surround the occurrence.

“I once had an ugly unforgettable experience, but it’s a family thing and my parents won’t be happy if I share it on the pages of newspaper. It’s ever fresh in my memory.”
Uche Elendu is presently on location in Niger State.
