Nollywood actress and body positivity advocate, Monalisa Stephen has strongly criticized critics who compare her to Eniola Badmus and Warri Pikin.
In a post on her Instagram page, Monalisa expressed her desire not to emulate her colleagues or lose weight like them. She urged her critics to leave her alone and accept her body as it is.
She asserted that she will always remain true to herself, emphasizing that she has no desire to be anyone else. She pointed out how whenever a plus-size celebrity loses weight, trolls unfairly target her with false accusations of jealousy.
She wrote;
“I don’t want to be or look like Aunty Eniola Badmus or Real Warri Pikin. I don’t want to lose weight and be thin. Leave me alone with my fat body. I am still here to Remind every one of you Trolls that I will forever be Me! I am not anyone and don’t even wish to be another Person Make una Dey Try Rest!
