Beverly Osu, the renowned Nollywood actress, recently shared a fascinating story about her time as a reverend sister in a convent.
In a candid interview on the Tea With Tay podcast, Osu revealed that her family had encouraged her to join the convent while she was still in high school.
However, her involvement in extracurricular activities, such as performing secular music and participating in stage plays, ultimately led to her expulsion.
The actress pointed out that her portrayal of Lucifer in one particular play seemed to be the breaking point for the school authorities.

Although they did not explicitly use the term “expulsion,” they made it clear that she should continue her religious work elsewhere and never return.
She said: “Family first said this girl is very stubborn, let us throw her in there and I just said okay. “It is a secondary school ‘Daughters of Divine Love’ but you register, being a sister or not.
“Na reverend sister they picked for me so I had to follow the path but they expelled me.“Till today, I still have small resentment like, ‘why una expel me?’ But then, I used to play secular music, I was the drum prefect and I used to do stage plays.
“Some girls woke up and said after the stage play, they were seeing me in their dreams and I am a witch because I played Lucifer.
“They expelled me because they said I was doing the most with the band, with the stage play, with not sleeping on my bed.
“They asked me to go and continue God’s work somewhere else. They did not want to say it is expulsion but they gave me a letter never to come back.”
