She said, “I faced a lot of backlash for my role in Glamour Girls 2. You know, at that time the Nigerian populace pretended that they don’t watch such movies.

“So, a lot of people were labelling me. They called me Sharon Stone, Mammy Water, Husband Snatcher.

“The character I played was a student who snatched a wealthy man from his wife. So, a lot of people were seeing me as a seductress. Well, I am very alluring.

“I can’t deny that because if I deny myself that means I am denying God.

“A lot of people were like that leave your man with Eucharia, she’s going to take him away.

“It was crazy to the point that if women see me when they are with their men, they hold them tightly,” she said.
