Warri Pikin Expresses Regret Opening Up On Weight Loss Journey

Nigerian Comedian Warri Pikin

Nigerian comedienne Anita Asuoha, also known as Real Warri Pikin, has revealed that she almost regretted disclosing her weight loss journey after experiencing hostility.

The comedian revealed that she suffered various health issues as a result of her weight before undergoing gastric sleeve surgery.

She also spoke openly about some of the difficulties she had even after the successful operation.

During an interview with Ghanaian journalist Doreen Avio for JoyNews, the comic said that she was constantly hospitalized due to her severe disease issues.

The comedian-turned-actress said, “It wasn’t easy at all,” adding that she was unable to appear in comedic events and had to return some money that had been paid to her.

Warri Pikin added that she has come to understand that people find it difficult to accept change.

“I almost regretted coming out to say my truth, because people do not accept change. They are stuck with the old version of you because your old version makes them happy, and comfortable. They are plus size, they’re big, they can relate and it makes them happy. So, when you change they feel like you’ve betrayed them, they can’t accept change.
