Anita Alaire Afoke Asuoha, popularly known as Real Warri Pikin, is a comedian and actress from Nigeria who has opened out about her experience with weight-loss surgery.
The comedian disclosed at a recent event that she chose to have the surgery in response to a humiliating experience at a bank’s security system. She related how the bank’s automated security system mistaken her for several people because of her size.
In her words, “When I was plus-sized, one of the reasons I decided to do weight-loss surgery was an embarrassing situation at the bank. I entered into the bank door and the next thing I heard was, ‘Step back, one at a time, one at time’.”
