While many called for proper investigation and prosecution, Yomi demanded to see evidence of CCTV footage of Baba Ijesha sexually abusing the girl and asked his colleagues not to kick a man when he’s down.
However, Iyabo Ojo lambasted him via videos shared on her Instagram page today, for being sympathetic towards a man that police stated was caught molesting a girl.
Iyabo Ojo and Yomi Fabiyi has since been trending conversation on social media, with many Nigerians coming out to defend the actress, including Toke Makinwa.
Speaking via her Twitter handle, the fashion entrepreneur 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.

Speaking further, the media personality wondered why anyone would demand to see CCTV footage of a young girl being molested, asking Nigerians to stop questioning victims.
Anyone asking for video evidence first is part of the problem, ask yourself why you want to watch a video of a child being sexually molested, what does that do for you? Why do you even want to see a video of a minor being molested before you believe them? Stop questioning victims

Toke Makinwa demanded that people should stop shaming victims of abuse and trying to analytically understand their statements.
Stop shaming victims of abuse, stop trying to analytically understand their statements, you clearly heard the child was failing in school, her brothers complained of a change in her behavior pattern, you think they made all that up???? You must be sick too.

She then slammed some Twitter users defending Yomi Fabiyi, threatening to block anyone who makes excuses for him.
If I see you comment rubbish defending Yomi Fabiyi I will block you, I will shame you first so everybody else can block you, we will report your account and hopefully have it removed, if you have no joy pls don’t take that of innocent young people, they deserve to be protected

Toke Makinwa then recalled how a man once commented about how pleasant looking the derrière of a three-year-old child was, adding that she cursed the man for his unpleasant comment.
The world is full of sick people, I once heard a grown ass man comment on how fresh a 3 year olds bum was, he casually just blurted out see as this babies bum bum fresh, I cursed him out and guess what? People around thought I was exaggerating, like it’s just a compliment.
