Toke Makinwa has slammed actor Yomi Fabiyi for sympathizing with, Baba Ijesha, who is currently in police custody for allegedly molesting a 14-year-old girl when she was just seven.
In a post he made on his Instagram page, Yomi Fabiyi called out some of his colleagues who, according to him, come out to cast aspersions on a fallen man because they believe no one can help them.
The actor went on to say that he does not support evil or crime against women and children, but that he will always use his common sense and conscience in every situation.
He wrote:
Sometimes COMMON SENSE and CAUTION are needed more irrespective of ones personality and principle to serious issues or whatever you know. I am not going to be part of a bad antecedent. If my words come ambiguous, seek understanding before rushing to hurt your colleague online, too low and dirty.
I will continue to fight for what is right and I will never condone anyone reading negative meaning or isolate my words just to give a dog a bad name and subject to cyber bullying.
Gbogbo wa ni isowo ogun oh.
However, we all must be united on the bigger picture and the serious issue at hand. Focus to be hugely on the mental health of the minor and her guardians AND not to twist words or engage in needless drama of distractions. Count me out of social media or industry beef or recklessness
Fair trial, protection of human rights, and justice is crucial for the public to be on the right path.
Seek every protection to children and minors around you. SAY NO TO RAPE, SAY NO TO SEXUAL HARRASMENT, SAY NO TO CHILD ABUSE.
Like Iyabo Ojo, Davido, and other Nigerians, Toke has also taken to her social media handle to slam the actor.
Posting on her handle, Toke wrote;
”Yomi Fabiyi is a disgrace, a complete idiot, one of the reasons why the fight against sexual violence gets harder by the day, you want to see a video first even when you know she is a minor? Even after you heard he confessed? What is wrong with the world??? I cannot can’t.”
