Feminism Is Toxic, I Don’t Want To Be Part Of That - Nollywood Actress, Bimbo Akintola

Nigerian actress, Bimbo Akintola has referred to herself as a humanist rather than a feminist.

The 51-year-old actress, who stated this in an exclusive interview with PremiumTimes, at a movie set in Lagos, said feminism is a toxic ideology.

"My passion for the girl-child and the women does not make me a feminist; I am a humanist," she said.

“I don’t like this feminist idea because I think there’s a focus on this wing of feminism that is extreme. It’s toxic. I don’t want to be part of that. I want us to realise that you care about humans if you say you are a humanist

"That means every individual: boy, girl, woman, man; everybody. My niche is the women and the girl child because there is so much to do concerning this issue in Nigeria." she added.
