Benson Nana Oduro Boateng, better known as Funny Face has revealed in a new interview that he has no idea where his two daughters are.
The Ghanaian actor and comedian, who augmented his mainstream relevance on the defunct TV series Chorkor Trotro admitted that to better his mental health, he has chosen to abandon the idea of searching for them.
Speaking recently on Hitz FM’s Daybreak program, which Graphic Showbiz was listening to, he admitted that even though he was unaware of the whereabouts of his twin girls Bella and Ella at the time, his manager was in constant communication with them. Funny Face discussed the root of his depression during the conversation, among many other topics.
“Buttocks didn’t take me through depression, the love of my children sent me into that state. I was so crazy about my daughters to the extent that when they were crawling when they fall and cry I cry too.
“Naturally, I am an emotional person and I love people’s kids deeply, so, how much my own? So, when they were no more with me I couldn’t take it, I lost it. Their toys are in the room and when I see (them), my triggers go level 10, it was that bad,” he said.
Funny Face acknowledged that his stay in a mental health facility aided his recovery.
“When I went to the psychiatric hospital and they told me ‘you do not have a problem, yours is your emotions. When you get a grasp of your emotions you are okay. Your kids, everybody knows you do everything for them, so currently start working on yourself, focus on your mental health,” he said.
