'I'm getting more favoured because of my fair complexion'- Juliet Ibrahim

Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim in a chat with Punch last weekend said 'I am a half-caste and as a child, there was no colour difference - you are just happy with where you are and who you are with. Then, Ghanaians accepted people for who they are. However, I am being told now that I am receiving more favours because of my fair complexion. It seems people now have issues with colored people'

Could that be the reason why some actresses/ladies have become light skinned overnight?
