How to iterate and show validation errors messages in ejs template?

Question

I created express app and implemented flash message. Now when i get the flash messages from validation errors I am passing that messages to view. But when i try to get the messages in the view I am not able to see since app showing bunch of error lines. How can i display the error messages in the view based on Ejs view engine.

this is the error messages stored in req.flash('fail_msg')

[ { location: 'body',
param: 'email',
value: '',
msg: 'Email must be valid' },

{ location: 'body', param: 'phone', value: '', msg: 'Phone Number is required' }, { location: 'body', param: 'password', value: '', msg: 'Password is required' }, { location: 'body', param: 'agreeTerms', value: undefined, msg: 'Must agree term and condition' } ]

from My routes.js

function checkValidationResult(req, res, next) {
    const result = validationResult(req);
    if (result.isEmpty()) {
        return next();
    }
    req.flash('fail_msg', result.array());
    res.render('signup', { message: req.flash('fail_msg')});
}

And this is from ejs template

<%if('message'){%>
        <% message.foreach(function(errors){ %>
          <%=errors.msg%>
       <% }) %>
<%}%>
