Nollywood actress Eniola Ajao disclosed in an interview with The Tribune Newspaper that she came close to harming herself following the circulation of false information about her. She admitted to almost resorting to poisoning herself, leading to a seven-day period of self-imposed starvation, causing concern among her family members, including her sister and son. However, she did not specify the nature of the fabricated news that triggered her extreme reaction.
In her words;
“I almost poisoned myself because there was something about me that was put online. The news about me was far from being true. I didn’t eat for like seven days, and people that were around me can testify to this. I couldn’t go anywhere. This was around the same time when I was planning my movie. My sister, my son, everyone was calling me because the story came from nowhere and I felt terrible.”
