Rising Nigerian comedian Baba de Baba is currently being trolled all over social media after he made a tasteless “comedic skit”.
The video which he shared on his Facebook page a couple of days ago has incited lots of angry comments after it was purported to have been pushing a rape-promoting content.
And he has been facing major backlash for this ever since the video went viral.
In the skit, titled “Rape Nonsense“, Baba de Baba is accused of raping a girl by a policeman but he explains to the policeman that he did not rape the girl, rather he forcefully slept with her after she stayed with him for a week without sex. He explains in the skit that he had spent money on her in the club and that whenever she showers, she’ll lay on the bed with him, without doing anything.
At the end of the video, Baba de Baba faces the camera and says “If you cannot sleep with a man, don’t go to his house”
The skit has caused major backlash online and the comedian has now put his social media pages on private. He has also added “#SayNoToRape” to his profile bio.
It’s unfortunate that many people still promote “rape culture”.
