🕊️ RIP Fredrick Parsayo: A KBC Journalist Silenced by Depression and Despair 🕊️

 

In a tragic turn of events, Fredrick Parsayo, a respected journalist with KBC TV,

has allegedly taken his own life after a painful and lonely battle with depression. His untimely death has sent shockwaves across the media fraternity and the nation, shining a glaring light on the mental health crisis that continues to claim lives in silence.

💔 Months Without Salary, A Baby to Feed, and Marital Strain

Fredrick had not received his salary for months, yet he carried the weight of fatherhood, striving to provide for his young baby. At the same time, strained marital issues amplified his emotional struggle. These overwhelming pressures pushed him into deep despair — a storm no one should have to face alone.

🍷 Turning to Alcohol, Searching for Peace

In his suffering, Fredrick turned to alcohol, hoping for comfort, but solace never came. The darkness of depression grew heavier, and the isolation deeper, until the burden became unbearable.

🚨 A Call to Action: Mental Health Cannot Wait

Fredrick's death is not just a personal loss — it is a wake-up call. How many more must we lose before we take mental health seriously? How many are battling silently, trapped by unpaid wages, family pressures, and a lack of support?

✊ Let’s Stand Together

We must build a society that does not just talk about mental health, but acts. A society with support systems, early interventions, and a culture where seeking help is strength, not shame.

🕯️ Rest in Peace, Fredrick Parsayo.

May your soul find the peace that eluded you in life. And may your story move us to create a world where no one feels so lost and alone. 🙏
