Funke stated that she is a strong woman, but she broke down in tears over a video of being mocked for not having a husband, and she sought the help of a therapist.

She further advised people to seek therapy, adding that they need to speak up.

She said, “Right from the start, I’ve always known that therapy is important, but I never submitted myself to it. You know, I’d be like, I don’t want anyone to hear about me. They’ll go and spread the gist. But I was dying in silence because I was acting strong.

“Every time I showed strength, they threw more at me — at home, from family, at work, in society. You’re the role model for a lot of people out there. I’m a very strong person. I have that strength, my God. I would hold my face firm, oh yes. When Mum passed on my everything, my prayer partner the politics, the backlash, the insults, you know?

“There was one video I watched. They were mocking me, saying I don’t have a husband. Women dancing and mocking me. I broke down. I cried and cried and cried. Then I told myself, you need to speak to someone about this. You can’t continue like this. You need to speak up, you understand?

And I reached out, and I started speaking. I felt better. Things I couldn’t tell others, I told my therapist. And now I’m better. So I want to advise you out there: it’s very important for you to speak up. Yes.”
