Yemi Solade, a well-known Nollywood actor, has claimed that one needs to be a member of “the cult” in order to live and survive in Nigeria. The actor stated this in a post he made on his Instagram page on Saturday, April 8, in which he talked about his struggle with depression.
He shared an image of himself staring down with the words “God, please” even though he didn’t go into much detail about the situation.
“To live and survive in Nigeria, one must belong to the cult”, he added in another post.

Solade, who also revealed that he is currently battling depression, did not elaborate on what led to his mental health struggles. His post has, however, sparked a conversation about the importance of mental health awareness in Nigeria and the need for a support system for those who are struggling.
Depression and cultism are pressing issues in Nigeria, and the fact that a well-known public figure like Solade has spoken out about them has shed light on the gravity of the situation. Fans and colleagues have rallied around the actor, sending messages of support and encouragement.
Solade’s post serves as a reminder that mental health is just as important as physical health and that we must prioritize our well-being above all else. It also calls for more efforts to combat the rise of cultism in the country and the need for a safer environment for everyone to live and thrive in.
