Popular television host Frank Edoho has opened up about one of his deepest fears, saying he never wants emotional pain caused by a woman to become the reason for his d+ath.
Speaking during an interview on the YouTube show Outside The Box on Saturday, Edoho reflected on the emotional burden many men carry in silence and how difficult the journey of manhood can be.
“I don’t want to go to the gates of heaven and they ask me what k+lled me and they say it’s a woman. Whether that woman be my daughter, my wife, my mother, I don’t want that. I don’t want that to be my way out of this portal,” he said.
He added that he hopes to leave the world remembered for spreading joy and kindness rather than carrying regrets.
“I want to d+e with a smile on my face saying that all the people I met, I tried to put a smile on their face, and to have the only regret that I wish I did more good. Not that I wish I had more time,” he said.
The media personality also spoke about the silent struggles many men face behind closed doors, noting that most men suffer quietly without speaking up.
“The task of manhood is very daunting. Men don’t speak. Men go through a lot. Whatever a man is going through, he’s just silent. He doesn’t say it. He holds it to himself. And some of them go to the grave with it. Too many, actually,” he said.
Sharing a personal experience, Edoho further revealed that he once battled a dark emotional phase privately for nearly two years without anyone knowing.
“For two years, there was a couple of years back I was in a very dark hole but nobody knew. I couldn’t call you guys. I just said, you know what, this is a journey I have to make on myself to reorganise myself. And I’m happy I did. But at the time, I thought that the walls were caving in,” he said.
