Host of Onua Showtime and actress, Nana Ama McBrown has returned to the screens after 7-month long break.
She took a break from hosting the show in May 2025 to undergo a fifth and final surgery on her right arm.
Speaking in an interview on TV3 New Day’s The Big Issue, McBrown announced her return stating “I’m ready to work. I am back on Onua Showtime.”
McBrown revealed that she should have returned to the show last Sunday but was a bit unwell and would finally return on Sunday, December 21, 2025.
McBrown returns on Onua Showtime with a grand show at the Alisa Hotel on December 21, 2025 to mark the festive season.
“To be honest, I was supposed to start last Sunday but everything is here, the body and by God’s Grace if this whole body is not well, the performance will be limited so management agreed with me to be well and come back.
“So, this Sunday it is happening at Alisa hotel. It is going to be one big show for Christmas and as you know Onua Showtime is for Ghanaians and we are welcoming everybody,” she announced.
The final surgery, according to her, brings an end to a long and challenging chapter in her life.
McBrown has battled pain for over a decade following a near-fatal car accident in January 2013, which left her with a severely injured right arm requiring multiple surgeries.
Speaking on TV3’s New Day on December 17, monitored by 3Entertainment’s Owusu Worae, the multi-award-winning actress shared that it took years of surgeries, therapy, and personal resilience to finally find relief.
“I haven’t been on TV for work since May. I took time off to do my last surgery on my hand. This is my fifth one, and it’s the last because of how I’m feeling now and how I prayed to God for healing,” she revealed.
Even while performing on TV, she often felt intense pain once the cameras stopped rolling. “I was on TV every day, dancing and making people happy, but when they say ‘wrap,’ within the next hour, when I’m calm, I start feeling my pain,” McBrown noted.
Now fully recovered, she expressed gratitude for her healing.
“I’m so happy and thankful to God that as I speak, I don’t feel the pain again. There is no pain, nothing. The marks are just healing for me. The scars tell a story,” she said.
