Jinad further explained that Mide Martins' comments deeply affected her, leading her to consider bleaching her skin, which she eventually did in 2012.

The actress recounted: “During a rehearsal on Afeez Owo’s set, an incident occurred where a colleague of mine committed an offense and despite not being responsible, we were all punished. Mrs. Mide Martins was present, along with my boss and others, and she compared my skin to that of a monkey.

“Her remarks deeply affected me. She even criticized my complexion, stating that I was too dark, prompting me to contemplate bleaching my skin to appease her and others.”
