According to her, she had two reasons why she bleached her skin. She stated that first of all when she started her acting career in Nigeria, she wasn’t getting movie roles because of her dark skin and was advised by a lady to tone her skin.
Speaking about her second reason, she revealed that her ex-boyfriend didn’t like a dark-skinned lady so he urged her on to bleach her skin.
