I entered the film industry by showing up to a Lagos audition I found out about on social media. The first film I was in was titled Agbede Meji (Crossroads) by Yomi Fabiyi. The first time I was on set, it was pretty difficult, but I had faith in my abilities. Abbey Lanre was the director on that set, and I had heard a lot about how severe he is. Yet I paid attention to him and followed his advice. I was able to provide a great performance in the movie by doing that.
Silent Cry, Teniola Akebaje, Romance, Wounded Heart, Broken Face, Unravelled, Eshe, and Default are just a few of the other films I’ve appeared in.
My favourite part of my body is my skin colour as it makes me unique in the industry. I’m dark and I’m proud of it. As a matter of fact, I have got movie roles because of my dark skin. It is a blessing to me.
Actresses who ‘bleach’ their skins are not confident and don’t believe in themselves. They also probably don’t have anything to offer, because if they do, they wouldn’t go down that route. Dark-skinned girls are doing well in the industry. I have never been discriminated against because of my complexion.
