Funke Akindele Reveals Struggles with Mental Health Due to Social Media Attacks

Following the murder of Jumoke Aderounmu, a cast member of “Jenifa’s” Dairy, Nollywood actress and movie producer Funke Akindele has spoken out about how she nearly lost her mental health as a result of comments she received on social media.
The actress reportedly 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.
However, because she was depressed at the time, she couldn’t handle the comments she received on social media as a result of Jumoke’s passing.

The politician-turned-actress claimed that in order to respond to the accusation that she neglected Jumoke prior to 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 had already experienced depression. I then grabbed my phone, went into the room, and shut the door to prevent Juliana and the others from opening it.

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