Ghanaian actor and comedian, Benson Nana Yaw Oduro, popularly known as Funny Face has admonished Ghanaians to trust in God in all their tribulations.
Speaking at a church event over the weekend, Funny Face reflected on his past struggles noting that at a point he suffered “serious depression” and contemplated on committing suicide but God intervened and healed him.
The actor urged the audience to trust and believe in God irrespective of the difficulties they are experiencing.
The actor used himself as an example to preach the message of hope and admonished Ghanaians to give their life to christ.
“If I say I have seen death and I am alive today, we give God the Glory…I went through serious depression and wanted to commit suicide and so if God has delivered from all my difficulties, then I tell you there is God, believe me.
“I have seen pain and seen suffering. There is God and I have encountered God. I have been to the psychiatric hospital; I’ve spent days in prison…I will tell you that with God we are still fighting and we will be victorious,” he noted.
Funny Face has in the past experienced challenges following his separation with his baby mama, Vanessa. The situation left him devastated and battled mental issues and was admitted at the Accra Psychiatric hospital for some weeks.
He was also involved in an accident last year and knocked down an older woman with her two grandchildren.
The actor was subsequently arrested and spent two weeks in police custody before being granted bail in the amount of GH¢120,000 by a District Court in Kasoa.
However, in recent weeks, Funny Face appears to have healed from the wounds of his divorce and in good shape.
