Priscilla Ojo, the daughter of Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, said she has never experienced depression due to the strong lineage of women in their family.
The 22-year-old influencer, who disclosed this during a conversation with media personality Jermaine, said she admires her mother’s strength and resilience.
Priscilla said she learned how to be strong from her mother, noting that they have never had moments when we were crying or witnessed depression.
The influencer acknowledged that even when she goes through tough times, her mother uplifts her spirits and encourages her to stay positive.
Despite knowing when she is feeling down, Priscilla said her mum doesn’t offer apologies but instead cheers her up, even suggesting going out to the club.
“I wouldn’t say I was depressed at any point because I feel like we came from a lineage of strong women. I am very strong, my mum is very strong. I have never seen my mum cry. We have never had moments when we are crying.
“We are very strong, my mother is very strong and I learned from her. Even when I go through something, she can never see me down. We have that spirit of… that energy of not in this house. I can be on my bed crying, once she comes in, I am dancing and she knows.
“But that’s the thing about my mum, when I am down she knows but you wouldn’t see her come to say sorry. She will even cheer me up to go to the club,” she said.
