Stop shaming those who bleached their skins – Olowu of Iwoland

 

The Oluwo of Iwoland, HRM Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale, has urged that, those who chose to bleach their skin, should be left alone and not be abused.

According to the monarch, everyone has a right to their personal choices and tongue lashing them, is an infringement of their rights.

“every action has it causative and effects. As an informed mind, the duo factors are considered before application of cosmetic products while the decision is personal.

“Recently, the government of Rwanda pronounced ban on skin bleaching products on the claim that the materials are harmful to human body.”

“Appearance is a personal interest. Even, the white people do a process called tanning to enhance their looks, applying products to look brown just as black men in Africa apply bleaching products to look white.

“Such a decision of skin treatment is a personal decision of which restriction is an affront on personal right. And denial can never stand the test of time in a developed nation.

“Contact lens is equally body enhancement product. Must we ban contact lens because it will give our eyes colour? The world is digital.

“Body treatment is a personal decision. As an identity, we need not shun the grace of our era. Go for the best products while treating your body.

“Everyone has personal reason. As an African, you can decide to make your skin lighter through body enhancement products in as much as you pleases yourself just like the white men are tanning to look darker or brown. It is your choice in as much it doesn’t change your identity or who you are. Your look is your personal asset.”
