AZZIAD NASENYA SAYS SHE CONTEMPLATED SUICIDE FOLLOWING INSTANT FAME

Content creator and radio personality Azziad Nasenya recently revealed her experience with cyberbullying and contemplating suicide after a video of her dancing to Utawezana by Femi One went viral.

During an interview with Dr. Ofweneke on TV47, Nasenya shared how cyberbullying made her contemplate taking her own life. “I was living on the 4th floor, alone in this one bedroom, my mum was paying the rent, of course, not me. After the video went viral, that did not shock me because I had done a couple of videos. People were sharing it, it was all love and then before you know it, boom. It changed.

I remember I was crying. It was terrible, I’m alone, it’s in the middle of a lockdown. I literally went to my balcony and I was like, ‘is this where God you let me go.’ I thought of it but I had a strong team behind me.”

Nasenya wondered why a harmless video of her dancing caused such negativity, “I’m like I’m just a teenager I was just doing what I love doing for the past one year, what do you mean someone is mad because I danced? I did not hurt anyone, I was just having fun, so that was my lowest moment,” she added.
