LAGOS, Nigeria(VOICE OF NAIJA)- Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has shared his views on depression, reminding fans that having money does not automatically guarantee happiness.
The conversation began after Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile made a bold post on X, suggesting that financial stability can fix depression.
“You’re not depressed, you need 20 million naira,” Zlatan wrote on X.

The exchange triggered heated reactions across social media, with many users supporting Timini’s opinion.
Several commenters argued that wealthy people also battle loneliness, anxiety, and depression despite their financial status.
Others pointed to the popular saying “lonely at the top,” insisting that mental health challenges can affect anyone regardless of fame or fortune.
