Nollywood veteran Ronke Ojo, popularly known as Oshodi Oke, has opened up about the emotional trauma she endured due to her failed marriage, revealing that it pushed her to the brink of madness. She was in a relationship with her ex-husband for a decade before they tied the knot, but their marriage didn’t last a year.
During an interview on media personality Biola Adebayo’s talk show, “Talk To B,” Ojo shared the details of her painful experience. She emphasized that the emotional turmoil resulting from her failed marriage took a severe toll on her mental health. At one point, she even contemplated walking naked in the streets, but it was her late friend, the actress Orisabunmi, who prevented her from doing so.
She recounted, “At a point, I almost lost my sanity, like mo fe ya were. I got out of my ex-husband’s room naked, I was going to walk outside naked. It was Bunmi, may her soul rest in perfect peace who drew me back. I was about to walk out butt naked.”
Describing the ordeal as “mental torture,” Ojo expressed her wish that no one should have to go through such an experience. She offered advice to women, encouraging them to differentiate between a man who doesn’t care about his partner and a man who lacks financial resources.
“That mental torture is not good for anyone. Another thing is, there is a difference between a man who doesn’t have any money and a man who doesn’t care, if a man doesn’t care it’s bad.”
