Eniola Reveals: ‘I Nearly Poisoned Myself Because of Fake News

Eniola Ajao, a well-known Yoruba actress and filmmaker, recently opened up about the profound impact of fake news on her mental health, revealing it nearly led her to attempt self-poisoning.

In a candid interview with Nollywood on Radio, the mother of one shared how the experience left her in deep emotional turmoil, ultimately causing her to withdraw from social activities as she struggled to cope.

“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 face 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,” she said.
