Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo
has opened up on her struggles as a single mother.
The mother of two took to her
Instagram page to share her story.
She revealed that she had a
short marriage that lasted for three years and produced two kids before the
collapse of the marriage.
She stated she was scared,
depressed and never thought she would make it in life after her marriage
crashed.
She uploaded an old picture of
her and her children and wrote: “This year, I began my journey as a single
mum with no direction. I was afraid, sometimes depressed, confused, and I always
had a lot of anxiety. I felt like a failure; a loser. I felt I wasn’t good
enough, I felt little, I didn’t really know how to fit in or even start.
“How was I even going to pull
through? I never thought of making it in life. I just wanted my kids to be
fine, that was my ultimate goal. All I knew to do was to love my kids immensely
and give them all of me and that inspired me to keep moving. Today I look back
and all I want to say is thank you, Lord.”
