Earlier today, Nigerian comedian, Baba De Baba came under fire
for an inappropriate comic skit on rape where he said things like, 'If I
want a girl that will sleep in my house and I will spend money on
her, I will invite my sister. If you can't sleep with a man, don't go to
his house'.
LIB reached out to the comedian who has now deleted the post and sent us his official apology. Read his apology after the cut..
I want to personally apologize to those who find my "Rape Nonsense" video offensive.
I didn't mean to project RAPE but the MORAL aspect of the video but its unfortunate that nobody cares about morals any more.
The
video is about a girl who visited a guy who is not a pastor nor her
blood relative and she stayed in his house for a week spending his money
and sleeping in the same bed with him, denied him sex and he raped her.
I intended passing a passage that most men
can't control their sexual urge so in order not to get raped, don't
visit a guy u can't sleep with. instead of Nigerians to see the MORAL
LESSON, what they saw was RAPE because RAPE IS SENSITIVE. so we can't
say our mind again.. na wa o.
With
the reactions from the video, I can now understand why we have wayward
children everywhere.. most times I go to club and I see a 16yr old girl
smoking weed with tattoos all over her body and she still stays under
thesame roof with her parents without being beaten. I stay alone but I
can never try having a tattoo because my father will kill me. as old as I
am with my exposure , I don't smoke nor drink just because my father
will not be happy with me if he finds out.. u can confirm from any
comedian.
It took me this long
to apologize because some women organisations saw the skit and instead
of them officially writing a letter(inbox), they were busy twitting and
insulting me on my wall and I said to myself "if this is really an
organisation, they should be organized enough to inbox me". None of
them even followed me on instagram. they were just coming to insult and
go so I know that they may not see this apology because they are not
following me and I will not tag them.
I
removed the video not because of the NGOs who went about insulting me
but for those goof people who took it upon themselves to call and inbox
me when they don't even belong to any NGO on rape matters.
I think the women NGOs should bring up programs to sensitize our girls on how to avoid being raped IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS SKIT.
ON THIS NOTE I WANT SAY "I AM VERY SORRY"
