Nollywood actress, Charity Eke aka Chacha Eke-Faani has disclosed that she developed deep hatred for her mother and even wished for her death while growing up.

She said her hatred for her mother was caused by a mental disorder “that switches your favourite to your least favourite.”

The actress claimed that her animosity for her mother was fueled by false revelations from so-called men of God who claimed her mother was out to kill her.

The mother of four revealed this while celebrating her mother’s birthday via her Instagram page on Wednesday.

Sharing a video of herself and her mother, Chacha Eke captioned it, “This is a video of me and my biological Mom. I loved her intensely when I was younger. She was, and still is my best friend.

“However, as I got older, I began to dislike and develop deep hatred for her. I had nightmares and hallucinations that supported my euphoria. Sadly, many men of God told me after several manic episodes that she was after my life.

“And so, I went about wishing her death and spewing despicable things about her.”

The actress said she was grateful to have realised her hatred for her mother was as a result of her mental health while her mother was still alive.

She said despite her struggle with mental illness, her mother still raised a “queen.”

Chacha Eke advised others suffering from similar disorders to seek medical help.
