Nollywood actor and singer, Ayoola Ayoola, has recounted his experience of attempting suicide.
The ‘The Men’s Club’ actor said he became depressed and contemplated suicide after he was expecting a child he wasn’t ready for.
According to him, he wasn’t prepared to be a father so he decided to end it all.
Speaking in a candid interview with Chude Jideonwo, Ayoola said looking at his son now he regretted his action.
He said, “The time the pregnancy for my son came, I wasn’t prepared to be a father. I got depressed and almost took my life. I deliberately miscalculated while crossing the road so that I would be hit and the car just brushed me.
“I look at my son now and I’m like, ‘This is what I was about to miss? This is whose life I was about to destroy?’ This little boy would have been fatherless.”
Ayoola: I felt to myself, what if I just end it right now? You know, nobody is going to miss me.
