Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo has narrated how he almost committed suicide at a tender age.
In an interview with Vanguard, the thespian said that he suffered while living with his brother’s wife in Enugu.
“I used to hawk Agidi on the streets of Enugu and on one of those dark days, while he was crossing Abakpa Bridge to hawk Agidi, he looked into the deep water when a voice urged him to jump into the water and end his suffering.
“I was a small boy carrying this heavy thing on my head. But I did not listen to that voice and luckily for me, I finished selling all agidi.

“My brother’s wife, whom I lived with in those days in Enugu, did not want to know your age; she would give me dozens of agidi on my head, and God save me if I returned home with some unsold items with the kind of beating I would receive that day.
“If you are familiar with Enugu State, I used to hawk agidi from New Haven to Abakpa, a long distance.
“I have gone through the thick and thin of life. I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth. But I want to make sure that children don’t go back to where I started from,” Kanayo said.
