In a brave and candid revelation, dancehall sensation Cynthia Morgan, also known as Madrina, sheds light on her personal journey of fending off sexual advances from industry insiders.
Madrina recently shared her experiences with sexual harassment in a heartfelt post on her Instagram story, a message that resonated with many before it was taken down.
In her powerful testimony, Cynthia Morgan attributes her ability to repel such advances to her assertive nature and tomboyish demeanor. She proudly asserts that she has never succumbed to harassment in her career.
However, amidst her triumph, Madrina expresses deep concern for her fellow female artists in Nigeria. She highlights the pervasive issue of sexual harassment within the music industry, which often impedes the dreams and ambitions of aspiring female talents.

In her words:
“When I tell people I never witnessed sexual harassment in the music industry they are always surprised. Firstly, in real life, I was a tomboy and secondly, I always use to threaten people on how I will import people from Benin to fuck everybody up. Then they fear me for that Lagos.
It’s just so sad how being feminine and wanting to be successful makes you prey. I really pray for a better Nigeria/world.
Stay tough.
God will see us through”.
