Nollywood actor Justin Ugonna, known as Justin UG, has shared that he has joined the United States Air Force. He finished a tough training that pushed him both physically and mentally.
The actor announced this on Instagram on Wednesday. He posted a photo of himself in his US Air Force uniform, calling himself an official member of the force.
"If you had told me a few years ago that I’d one day be wearing this uniform, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. This was never a path I imagined for myself, but here we are," he wrote.
Justin explained that the last few weeks were some of the toughest times in his life. He learned a lot about his mental strength and overcoming challenges.
"The past few weeks have been some of the most mentally and physically challenging weeks of my life. But if there’s one thing this experience has taught me, it’s just how powerful the mind really is," he said.
He added that he does not want to go through the experience again, but he appreciates the lessons and growth it brought him.
"Would I want to do it all over again? Absolutely not. But I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything," he said.
Justin finished his post by celebrating this new chapter in his life, saying, "Officially a United States Airman."
His announcement comes just months after another Nollywood actor, Joseph Momodu, joined the United States Army.
