Iyanya, a well-known Afropop musician, discusses how he previously contemplated suicide as a result of the pressures of his job and life in general.

Iyanya revealed this in an interview on the most recent episode of the “Tea With Tay” podcast, which is hosted by Taymesan, a.k.a. Temisan actor Emmanuel Ahwieh.
