According to Biodun, she was forced out of the industry due to frustrating experiences with marketers who demanded sexual favours.
Without mentioning names, she recounted how they made her life miserable and deliberately sabotaged her career.
“Marketers were the reason I left the movie industry after blacklisting me for refusing to remove my panties. They even told producers to stop featuring me in movies and went as far as removing my head from the poster of a film where I played the lead role.
“How many of their wicked actions should I even talk about? They did so much damage to my career that I eventually got tired of acting and walked away by myself. I developed so much hatred for a job I once had so much passion for that I began to turn jobs down,” she revealed.
