Nigerian singer Charles Oputa, aka Charly Boy, has dropped a bombshell that goes beyond the petty gbas gbos over his renamed bus stop.
The 74-year-old entertainer admitted that the whole drama around his bus stop being changed to “Baddo Bus Stop” almost pushed him into depression.
“Life is a bitch, then we die,” Charly Boy began, before revealing how he had to escape Nigeria briefly just to save his sanity.
According to him, he japa’d to Europe to visit his brother, Dr Alban, hoping to recharge and cool off. But even there, the man couldn’t find peace.
He confessed: “I was to spend 3 weeks recharging and rebooting. You can’t imagine, only after 10 days body begin scratch me, like say I forget something for Nigeria, the same environment wey dey give me sleepless nights sometimes. Couldn’t even do 2 weeks complete, I don run come back.”
Despite joking that it felt like “jazz”, the Area Fada got real with his fans.
“Depression na real matter. I was lucky enough to take a break and come back refreshed. But how many people get that kind privilege? Some people no even get where to run to. Dem dey stuck with their pain, smiling on the outside, but bleeding inside.”
He urged Nigerians to stop treating mental health as a weakness or taboo.
“If Area Fada fit admit say sometimes e dey choke, you too no need to pretend. Speak up, breathe, find your way back. Life go still test us, but make we no let am break us.”
The activist wrapped his note with hope: “My people, here’s wishing you a happier month. It shall be well with us.”
