Renowned Ghanaian broadcaster Nana Yaa Brefo has given an emotional account of how she nearly committed suicide after two failed marriages and losing her womb.

The multiple-award-winning broadcaster shared her story for the first time in an interview amidst tears.

According to her, Society expected her to settle down after a certain age and she knew it was not possible because they had taken her womb away.

“People shouldn’t be bothered about the fact that you are not married but ideally it will bother you. A woman after a certain age is expected to settle down. But when they take your womb away, they have taken your womanhood away.”

Nana Yaa Brefo said she felt like a man after she had surgery which took out her womb and that emotional trauma nearly forced her to commit suicide.

“… there is no difference between yourself and another man. That contributed to my marriage failure. I wanted to end my life. Sometimes, it is only the person who wants to commit suicide that understands what he or she goes through,” she told Zionfelix in an interview.

Speaking on her failed marriages, Nana Yaa Brefo said she does not believe in the school of thought which says stay in a marriage even when you are being abused.

“I have been married and divorced on two occasions. I don’t really talk about my personal life so people don’t know. Maybe it is my fault. It could be as a result of the work I do. Our job has a lot of negatives, especially, for women. Sometimes it is a normal relationship mistake at home.”

“If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t. I am not the type who believes in staying and dying in it. The dangerous one is emotional abuse. Marriage can be very stressful and if you don’t take care, one day, you might be gone,” she said.
