I have suicidal thoughts too – Kemi Olunloyo reacts to death of former Konga CEO

Self acclaimed investigative journalist Kemi Olunloyo has reacted to the death of the former chief executive officer of Konga, Nick Imudia.

TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) earlier reported that the former Konga boss jumped from the balcony of his apartment in Lekki area of Lagos state on Tuesday, June 25 and died instantly.

Reacting to Imudia’s death, Olunloyo, who is the daughter of the former governor of Oyo State Victor Olunloyo, said in a social media post on Thursday that she too has had suicidal thoughts.

Appealing to the general public, she wrote, “Pls stop shaming me as a begger. Pls stop calling me a mad woman. Pls stop calling me a drug addict. Pls stop saying my father disowned me. Pls stop saying my children disowned me. None of these things are true.

“I was also constantly bullied as a female journalist doing my work. Threatened by celebrities I trusted who posted my address and phone numbers online if my stories and investigations didn’t fit their narrative. You do not know my life stories.

“I have dealt with #PTSD and suicidal thoughts for years on different levels.”

Olunloyo said she left her family because they are toxic.

“For me PTSD is depression, anxiety and panic attacks rolled into one. My family was toxic, I left them, my country was toxic, I left it, my job as a digital journalist was toxic I left it after 30 yrs. #PTSD survivors have to change their environment. You cannot tell my story. Stop pushing people to the brink. You do not know what they are going through,” she said.
