Captioning the video, the Yoruba movie star pointed out that the outfit was not harmful but it was uncomfortable to wear.
She wrote: “Before you come for me and say na by force? Pls, DON’T! It was a big night for me and I had to look good. The outfit wasn’t harmful at all, it was just uncomfortable. And you know what they say, fashion is pain.. Aso oke is not a breathable fabric, so Yh my corset so corseted my soul.”
