Actress Adunni Ade , known for her Nigerian and Irish heritage, recently spoke openly about the difficulti£s she encountered early in her Nollywood career due to her skin tone.
Adunni Ade said this during the interview:
“Because I wasn’t getting the roles that I wanted, it pushed me into filmmaking.And one of the c0re things I said I would never do is cast someone based on their colour.
Everybody, anybody, as long as you’re human, you will always have a chance on my set. As long as you can interpret the character, I will give you a sh0t.”
