Actress Beverly Afaglo has opened up about her decision to abandon Facebook, citing the overwhelming negativity and insults she faced on the platform.<\/p>\n

During an interview on Adom TV\u2019s Okukuseku with Emelia Brobbey, Beverly recounted that, she became target of cyberbullying following a GoFundMe created on her behalf to help her rebuild her life after a devastating house fire.<\/p>\n

She recalled the harrowing night when she lost everything, as the Police prevented her from entering the house to salvage any belongings for safety reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cI could not sleep because I was traumatized,\u201d she said, explaining that the only items she had were the t-shirt and leggings she was wearing.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, she expressed relief that her children were safe, and they spent the night at her sister\u2019s house.<\/p>\n

In light of the incident, fellow actress, Yvonne Nelson suggested starting a GoFundMe campaign to help Beverly rebuild.<\/p>\n

Although she initially relied on her supportive family, Beverly realized that rebuilding would be difficult and agreed to Yvonne\u2019s idea.<\/p>\n

However, the campaign led to unexpected backlash as Beverly said she received numerous insults and attacks, particularly on Facebook.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople insulted me on Instagram and other apps, but Facebook was the worst. I didn\u2019t know where the attacks were coming from because imagine I had lost everything and I was still being targeted,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n

The negativity became so intense that she decided to stop using the platform entirely.<\/p>\n

To preserve her peace of mind, Beverly has not returned to Facebook since the incident that happened in August 2021.<\/p>\n
