When asked if she thought the experience could give her strength to help others going through same situation, she said, “Definitely, I get messages every day from people who say they want to commit suicide and I ask them why?

“After burying seven family members and my daughter joined as the eighth, that means I have died a thousand times.

“When I see someone going through the same, I tell them to talk to a doctor. I used to go to Calabar before now because Nigerians are very funny. When you say you have mental issues, they assume that you are running mad. The mental issue could be Schizophrenia, depression or anything.”
