Popular Nigerian actress and filmmaker Wumi Toriola has criticized individuals who often blame their poor behavior on hormonal imbalances.
Taking to her Instagram page, Wumi jokingly dismissed the excuse that hormones are responsible for misconduct, stating that she secretes both estrogen and testosterone yet maintains self-control.
“Be lying on hormones and be misbehaving. Me sef dey secrete estrogen and testosterone at the same time. Ki gbogbo wa ku go nuts,” she wrote.
The actress added that some people conveniently hide behind the “hormones” excuse to justify misbehaving, but become defensive when others react in kind.
“People hiding gidigba under hormones to be acting weird. And then they say you are now the problem when you dish a bowl of what they served first. Be kind, na all of us dey this ALOT,” she added.
Her post has since sparked online discussions, with many agreeing on the importance of personal accountability, regardless of emotional or hormonal influences.
