Adebowale “Debo” Adedayo, recognized by his stage name Mr. Macaroni, a famous Nigerian actor, skit maker, and Human rights activist, has documented his experience with depression a few years back and how it helped his career

Mr. Macaroni resorted to social media to declare that he was miserable in 2017/2018 and was expelled from his fourth university during that time.

It’s no secret that the actor attended four universities in ten years, including Leadcity, HNAUB (Cotonou), ABUAD, and Redeemers.

Mr. Macaroni went on to let out that from 2018 to 2019, he made an effort to re-enter Nollywood but was fooled. He went through another invasion of melancholy in 2019 and settled for uploading things online, becoming popular the same year.

In his own words:

“Lol I was dealing with depression late 2017 /2018 –

That was the period I was expelled from Uni. And it was the 4th University at the time.

Abeg Wetin consine me with watching film then? My life sef na film wey people dey watch.

From 2018-2019 was another round of depression. I continued hustling for roles again in nollywood. I have been acting on and off since like 2011…

From one audition to another. Dem scam me tire. I dey pay for form ontop say I wan act….

I started creating contents and posting online late 2019 when depression wan finish me.

God picked my call same year.”
