Nigerian singer and songwriter Omawumi Megbele popularly known by her stage name Omawumi has spoken in strong terms on the menace of rape in the country, the abuse of women and particularly commented on the rape allegation against Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo by Busola Dakolo at an event she headlined.

The mum-of-two centred her speech on not featuring on Beyonce’s Lion King album, rape, domestic abuse and the award presented to Senator Elisha Abbo even after he was seen in a viral video assaulting a nursing mother.

Omawumi in her spirited speech called on victims of rape to rise above fear and share their stories, assuring them that they will be believed and supported just as is currently being done for Busola Dakolo.

She added that people have been getting away with rape for a long time and though she will accept that a rapist won’t own up to the crime, however, they need to “STFU”.
