"I've had people question my decision to leave a show that had 2.5 million views everyday and worse, I was leading on it!!! We are literally making stories and not saving lives!! You can't stay at a place/job at the expense of your mental health," she first hinted.

Luyanda further spoke about why she left the show, pointing fingers at a woman who made her time on the show difficult.

"Young women go through so much bullying in this industry, and they silence us by saying, "you'll never work again " well let me speak for myself! I've been cornered and bullied by older women who are in "power", and they expect me to shrink and shrink myself. Where I come from? YOU FACE GOLIATH, you don't shiver and shake in fear," she added.

Luyanda further said her activism led the woman to warn her about the apparent consequences she would face.
