The skin bleaching situation in Nigeria is real. I remember when I used to walk into the stores to buy bodywash and the only options stocked were whitening body washes. It was bananas. For their first show, Tiwa Savage and Banky W, along with their guests, discuss the issue.
I think Xclusive brought up an interesting point though I would have really liked to see how he expanded on it – wrong or right, people tend to do what’s more favored in society. If men are falling all over themselves to talk to a light skin chick, women of other shades will take notice, and a few of those will go so far as to emulate what they see getting favored. It’s similar to big breasted and big behind-ed (not a word lol) women in the States. How many women have gone to get breast implants or butt implants because they see men damn near killing themselves to get that?
Not a justification, just an observation. You can follow Tiwa and Banky’s Show @BankyTiwaShow on Twitter.
