    Published on

    Nollywood actress and producer Funke Akindele has talked about how she nearly lost her mental health as a result of abuses she received on social media after Jumoke Aderounmu, a cast member of “Jenifa’s” Dairy, passed away.

    The actress claimed to be a strong woman who is conscious of insults and abuse on social media during the first Live episode of the “WithChude” podcast.

    But because she was depressed at the time, she couldn’t handle the taunts she received on social media following Jumoke’s passing.

    The actress-turned-politician claimed that to respond to the accusation that she neglected Jumoke before her death, she grabbed her phone, went into a room, and went live on Instagram.

    “I see all the insults on social media,” she remarked. and I’m a tough lady, but there came a point when I nearly lost my mind when someone accused me of something I didn’t do an actress from “Jenifa” died, and people claimed I didn’t assist her. and I was already feeling down.

    In order to prevent Juliana and the others from opening the door, I grabbed my phone, went inside, and shut the door.

    “Some people go to kill themselves after locking the door. I’m glad I just locked the door so I could record live.
