Nollywood actress Christiana Nkemdilim Adelana simply known as Tana Adelana, has opened up about her depression and confusing condition.
Kemi Filani recalls that Tana Adelana lost her dad, Igwe Patrick Okoro-Egbo, to death in May 2022.
She announced the heartbreaking news on her verified Instagram page, describing the late monarch as the best dad ever.
She wrote: “My Dear Father.

A few days later, Tana Adelana also took to social media to show how weak she was about her father’s death despite giving him a befitting burial.
“I was totally weak’. I am still weak. But to God be the glory…” She captioned the colourful burial photos she shared.
Moving on, Tana Adelana took a few days’ break from the internet to calm herself mentally. But this had gotten many worried who thought the mother of one was going through depression.
Apologizing for the break in transmission, Tana Adelana disclosed that she is not depressed but very confused with a heavy heart.
She encourages her well-wishers to bear with her as she tries to get herself back.
She wrote “I’m sorry for the break in transmission guys. Not depressed but I am still very confused and my heart is still heavy. Pls bear with me and take me as I come pls. Trying to get back to me. One month today.”
Nollywood stars have taken to her comment section to pen encouraging words and console her about her loss.
