Dark and chubby Nollywood
actress, actress, Eniola Badmus had recounted her close shave with a rapist
back then in her secondary school days.
“Firstly, whether people are
saying the truth or not, 95 per cent of females are sexually harassed on a
daily basis. Because there hasn’t been stiff punishment over the years, this
act has continued to linger from one generation to the other. As a young girl,
a lot of things happened to me and I’ve also seen a lot of things. I grew up in
a polygamous home and a lot of people lived with us. When I was in my final
year in secondary school, I was almost raped. It was a very close shave. I was
saved by a guy called Michael Akinyemi.
“I don’t know where he is now but
I can’t forget him. He was injured in the process but he saved me. I was
practically five minutes away from being raped. I didn’t report then because of
the stigmatisation. The experience was really bad because my assaulter was bent
on raping me, hence we struggled so much. I still remember the guy’s name but I
would leave it out,” she told Saturday Beat.
On why she likes to be called
Senator Badosky, Badmus said, “Senator Badosky is a free-spirited person who
lives and lets others live. She’s also a hustler, not minding distractions from
others because she doesn’t take things personally.
Eniola Badmus also hints on what
her fans should expect after her new found weight loss journey.
“It’s not going to be a total
transformation because I still want to be a chubby girl; not slim. The goal is
to be chubby but sexier. Maybe like losing three sizes. People should not think
that I would be a shadow of who they know. I’m only doing this because I want
to. No matter how much we shout about body positivity, one would still have to
be on a diet. One would have to watch what one eats and exercise.
‘’I don’t want to be plus-size
and unhealthy. I might not work-out like fitness enthusiasts but I try to keep
fit. For clarity sake, I didn’t and don’t bend to societal pressure. I have a
very thick skin and like to do whatever suites me at any particular time. The
idea is to see what I would look like afterwards. There are some clothes I feel
like wearing but can’t wear them till I lose weight. I still belong to the ‘fat
girls association,” she spills.
