Anita Asuoha, also known as Real Warri Pikin, a Nigerian comedian, has said that she attempted suicide due to a debt of N22 million.<\/p>\n
In a post on her Instagram page on Wednesday, she revealed that when having financial difficulties, a motivational speaker who met with her husband persuaded him to try numerous enterprises.<\/p>\n
She said her husband was motivated to try many initiatives to achieve financial success, but the attempts resulted in the family going into debt of N22 million.<\/p>\n
The comedienne, who revealed her tale in honor of World Suicide Prevention Day, admitted to attempting suicide in June 2018 after all other options failed.<\/p>\n
She explained that though it might be tough, life is in seasons and phases, urging her fans not to make suicide an option when all hope seems lost.<\/p>\n
\u201cSuicide is making a permanent decision to a temporary problem. And most of all, hold on to God and do the one your power reach,\u201d the comedienne said.<\/p>\n
Asuoha had in 2019 said depression pushed her into comedy.<\/p>\n
\u201cI discovered my comedy talent through depression. In school, I used to dance professionally, host events, and do stand-up comedy. However, I didn\u2019t take it seriously. Last year, I fell into depression. I didn\u2019t have money, and a lot of things went wrong. I just said to myself, \u201cWhy not start making videos to motivate and inspire people in a funny way\u201d? And here I am today.\u201d<\/p>\n
