Actress Christabel Ekeh says she was surprised that Ghanaians expressed outrage at the release of her nude photographs when she suffered from depression.⠀
In 2017, she caused an uproar on social media after releasing nude photos of herself on the internet. ⠀
⠀
In an interview on Hitz FM, she disclosed that she felt she had committed more despicable acts than releasing her nude photographs.⠀
⠀
‘‘The real thing that was in my mind at that moment was like, why do people see nudity as a big deal? If they know what I have done, the real things I have done is worse than nudity so it is nothing…I felt it was nothing at all…,” she said.⠀
⠀
Christabel Ekeh, however, indicated that she felt that way in the past because the devil kept reminding her of her mistakes.⠀⠀
⠀
“I think that time I was just being guilty, shamed by the enemy. ‘You are nothing anymore because you are this, you are that’…that is how I felt,” the actress disclosed.⠀
⠀
Commenting on her recovery from depression and finding a new life in Christ, Christabel Ekeh said she travelled to Cotonou in Benin for a vacation with her new boyfriend to escape her troubles in Ghana.⠀
⠀
According to her, she met God in Benin even though the Churches in that country preached their sermons in French, a language she neither speaks nor understands.⠀
⠀
She returned to Ghana shortly and attended Church services frequently but at a point, Christabel Ekeh said she lost all hopes of living a new life.⠀
The actress said that at that point of despair, she released her naked pictures on social media.⠀
⠀
Christabel Ekeh added that she became conscious of her actions and rededicated her life to God when Ebony Reigns passed away.⠀
She felt she could have lived a better life to positively influence young girls like the late Ebony Reigns.⠀
