In an interview with Punch, the actress shared that acting roles can sometimes leave lasting effects on performers, citing her experience playing a witch in the series Blood of Enogie for three months.
“The role an actor gets is a function of how the casting director perceives them. It’s difficult to explain, but sometimes, after playing certain characters, it rubs off on you,” she said.

Etinosa admitted that after portraying the witch, she felt the need to seek therapy to “come out of that witchcraft persona.” She acknowledged the real impact such roles can have, adding, “As funny as it may sound, it is real.

When asked about the boundaries she sets in her career, Etinosa revealed that she avoids roles that promote violence or dishonesty, staying true to her values and the kind of messages she wants to convey through her work.
