Mbau has in recent years been open about her skin lightening and cosmetic surgery journey, even sharing the names of the products she uses and the procedures she has had done.

On Thursday morning, Mbau took to her Twitter account to finally respond, saying she owes nobody nothing and doesn't care for their opinions.
