Popular Yoruba actress and filmmaker Eniola Ajao has talked about how she nearly poisoned herself after coming across false information on social media.
The actress shared her experience and made this clear in a recent interview with Nollywood on Radio.
Eniola Ajao described how she experienced extreme mental pain as a result of fake news, which also caused her to distance herself from social interactions.
She said, “I almost poisoned myself because of news about me on social media that was far from true. It was the first time in my life to faced something so painful that I couldn’t eat for seven days. I didn’t go anywhere. People around me can testify to it.
My sisters were calling, telling me, ‘You have to do this for yourself. You don’t have to poison yourself.’ My son was reaching out to everyone that I was struggling with the online lies.”
