Foluke Daramola Reacts to Bleaching Allegation

In a recent interview with Vanguard Newspaper Foluke Daramola made the following response when asked if she was indeed bleaching.

"I don’t know where that is coming from, I have never been a dark complexioned person from time and also, I would never do anything that would be detrimental to my health for anything. Besides, I am a very beautiful woman from time, so I don’t know what bleaching would add to me. If I send my graduation picture that I took 13 years ago when I graduated from Ife to you and the one I took when I graduated from UNILAG four years ago, it’s still my same fair self, so maybe photoshop is doing something to the minds and sight of the people talking".
