I got into the movie industry by attending an audition in Lagos I learnt about on social media. The title of the first movie I acted in was Agbede Meji (Crossroads) by Yomi Fabiyi. My experience on set the first time was quite challenging but I believed that I could do it. The director on that set was Abbey Lanre and I had heard so much about him that he is strict. But I listened to him and did whatever he said I should do. By doing that, I was able to perform excellently in the movie.
Some of the other movies I have acted in include Silent Cry, Teniola Akebaje, Romance, Wounded Heart, Broken Face, Unravelled, Eshe, and Default, among others.
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.
