Morayo Afolabi-Brown has revealed she once battled depression and suicidal thoughts.
She said clarity finally came last year, leading to her decision to step down.
Nigerian television personality Morayo Afolabi-Brown has shared a deeply personal account of her struggle with depression during her years as host of TVC’s “Your View”.
In a candid interview with Chude, the TVC broadcaster who recently stepped down after 12 years on the show, revealed that she battled suicidal thoughts at the height of her emotional struggles. “I was depressed. At a point, I was suicidal. I walked on the express, hoping a car would hit me. It was that bad,” she said.
Morayo explained that she had long desired to move on to the next stage of her career but felt trapped until clarity came last year.
Reflecting on her decision, she noted, “It was when we [TVC] were ten years that I knew that it was time [for me] to go to the next thing. I have been harboring that thought for a while but I didn’t know how to go about it. But last year, I got that light-bulb moment.”
