“Sometimes things happen, you get a lot of frustration and end up having depression.” the Orlando Pirates star said as quoted by SoccerLaduma.
“Depression makes you do things and I don’t want to talk about it, for now, it is personal but now I’m okay and want to play football.
“Besides not playing football, there were a lot of things that were happening in my life personally which caused the depression but I don’t want to talk about it.
