Popular Nollywood comedian and actor, Ime
Bishop Umoh popularly known as Okon Lagos has come under intense criticism as the comedian took to his Instagram page to defend
the policemen charged with “Forceful intercourse” with commercial sex workers,
in Abuja.
In a video he posted on
his official page, he said he has been seeing some ladies protesting and reacting,
saying that some policemen raped some Prostitutes.
He says it is a wrong
allegation because rape is taking away someone’s dignity.
According to Okon
Lagos, Ashawo no get pride or dignity, hence the charge should not be rape but
it should be termed as stealing.
In Okon’s view, the
Police men were only stealing the ladies’s products and merchandise.
He captioned the video;
“Both are criminal acts
but different… R@pe and Theft. There is a little of one in another 😀😀”
This as expected has
sparked so negative reaction, as many have lashed out on him as been naive and insensitive, while a few others believe the comedian was just cracking another joke.
