“I attempted suicide three times” – Comedian Destalker says

Nigerian comedian Destalker has opened up on how he attempted to commit suicide three times due to depression.

He claimed that he was unable to find employment following his graduation from college and turned to commercial motorcycling.

The comedian said that his sadness was caused by his inability to find a profitable job or make progress in his career, as well as frustrations from family members.

Speaking in the latest episode of the Afrobeats Podcast, DesTalker said:

“I graduated with a degree in Public Administration but couldn’t get a job. So I started doing okada [commercial motorcyclist]. But the truth is, I already had it on my mind that I didn’t want to work for anybody. You must have a blueprint of what you want to become even though the country has its own blueprint waiting for you.

“I was struggling. It wasn’t easy. There were a lot of distractions and it got to a point where I was suicidal. I attempted suicide three times. I think nobody has heard this part of me. That was when I realized that even I couldn’t take my life. I now believe that when you’re suicidal, your miracle is close. The devil doesn’t just want you to attain it. The closer you are to your destiny, the more difficult the challenges. That was my story.”
