On May 15, the renowned comedian published a video online shedding light on his transformation after his mental health battles.

According to Funny Face, his condition, which made him suicidal, has cost him his life's hard work.

"Everything I've laboured and fought for, I lost everything. I won't go into details, but I want you to know how things went bad," he said.
"My life now is starting all over again. It's a new life. It's a new beginning. I entreat you to believe in Jehovah. People go through what I went through and never come out," he added.

Funny Face was one of the most sought-after celebrities in his prime. Many top stars, including Togolese Emmanuel Sheyi Adebayor, became fond of the Ghanaian comedian.

During his mental breakdown last year, Funny Face would record several videos verbally abusing his colleagues and benefactors, forcing many to cut ties with him.

Funny Face made scores of his fans emotional as he shared his story. The comedian has begun his resurgence with the support of Ghanaian actor Kwaku Manu.
