A short story of how I went off the radar 2weeks ago. Lol! Slide 2 was me trying to balance the negative media, COVID-19, social media drama, be a Nigerian living and trying to be successful in Nigeria, real life problems and still trying to stay positive. Slide 3 was me on Tuesday Morning when I came online and saw # BlackTuesday . That really was my cue to take a mental break. My mental health is my biggest priority in life, if I’m not at peace, everything else is irrelevant. Instagram is the only social media platform I’m on, e get why. Lol. While I really want to be active and always be here for you my Loves, my mental health remains my Number 1 priority and will NOT be compromised. Selfish right? Lol. I’ve been on my self development/ self discovery journey for a while now. These are my most selfish years. Sorry not sorry. I cannot pour from a cup that is empty. I’m sure you understand. Anyways, I’m back…and yes, I missed you too. The crazy thing about taking breaks off Social media is that I get too addicted to the solitude, I literally have to psych myself to come back, but I’m here now. Don’t tell me what I missed ooo. I’m good ! 😅 How have you been?

On June 2, the actress admitted that she was overwhelmed by all that is going on in the world and was considering going off Instagram to protect her sanity.

“Bruh! I’m torn between staying informed and logging off Instagram till it’s safe for me (for my mental health) to return. Trying my hardest as an empath not to get swallowed in it all…There’s so much going on in the world right now, from racism, to rape to murder…,” she wrote.
