Chacha Eke Speaks On Battle With Mental Illness

Taking to her official Instagram handle in a video of herself, the movie star revealed that she wrecked household property, and damaged valuable materials while battling mental instability.

Eke was reacting to a viral video of a boy who “destroyed his mother’s property because she seized his phone.”

According to her, she had a similar experience, while urging the mother to take note of her son’s health “because he might be mentally unstable.”

She said, “I have watched the viral video of the 12-year-old boy who literally wrecked his mum’s house because she seized his phone.”

“Here I am making this video, hoping that somehow this video will get to the mother of the boy. Contrary to the popular opinion in the comment section of the video, all I have to tell you is that your son is sick. He is mentally unstable. 

“He has a mental imbalance. I know this because I recognize myself in your son through his actions. I have wrecked household properties, equipment, damaged all sorts, different times; material and immaterial.”

Recall that the actress had in 2020, disclosed that she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

Meanwhile, Kanyi Daily had reported that Chacha Eke had announced the end of her 9-year-old marriage in a post on her Instagram handle, saying she doesn’t want to die.
