Nollywood actress, Habibat Jinad has revealed how her senior colleague, Mide Martins forced her to start bleaching her skin after their encounter on a movie set.
Speaking on Biola Bayo’s talk show, “Talk To B,” Habibat Jinad recounted an incident on the set of a movie produced by Mide’s husband, Afeez Owo.
The actress disclosed that Mide Martins, in front of others, insulted her based on her skin color, likening her complexion to that of a monkey.
Jinad said that the hurtful remarks deeply affected her self-esteem,, causing her to consider skin bleaching to conform to societal standards of beauty.
She said, “At a rehearsal ground at Afeez Owo’s set, something happened, a colleague of mine did something and I wasn’t the one who did that thing and they said we should kneel. Mrs. Mide Martins was there, my boss was there and some other people and Mide Martins compared it to a monkey’s skin. And it got to me. She even complained about my skin, saying I was too dark and this made me contemplate bleaching my skin to please her and others”.
