WITHIN NIGERIA recalls actor Deyemi Okanlawon had detailed how his role in Nigeria’s Netflix original series, Blood Sisters, affected him mentally.

In the series, Deyemi acted as Kola Ademola, an abusive partner who brutalised his victims as a pastime.

On his Twitter page, the actor noted that perfecting his role in the movie was a mentally draining process.

He earlier tweeted:

”Kola Ademola definitely affected me more than I care to admit and it took months to get to a semblance of normalcy. Strangely while I still firmly believe aggression should be met with justice, I now empathise with people who carry such demons.”
