Nigerian Popular Actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has recounted her experience with online mockery and how it affected her mental health.
According to her, she started visiting a therapist after some netizens mocked her for not having a spouse during her political campaign in 2023.
Sharing her experience on the Chude Live Conversation Show, she stated that the hurtful comments made her shed tears but she later perceived it as a motivation for her to work harder and achieve success.
Akindele said:
“There was a video on social media that some women mocked me that I don’t have a husband.
“I cried, cried and cried. I just told myself, you need to speak to someone about this. You can’t continue like this.
“I told myself that I needed to speak, I reached out, and I started speaking. After then, I felt better. Things I couldn’t tell people out there. I spoke to my therapist and I was better.
“So, I want to advise you out there. It’s very important for you to speak up. You need it. You can’t take everything. I’m a very strong person now. I have that strength to face any challenges in life.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>>
