Outrage As BBNaija All Stars Housemate, Seyi Awolowo Tells His Male Housemates He Will Train His Sons To ‘Run A Train’ On Other People’s Daughters
BBNaija All Stars housemate, Seyi Awolowo has come under attack over the unflattering comment he made to his fellow housemates earlier today.
Viewers were left shocked and mortified by some of the utterances made by Seyi while chatting with fellow housemates.
While speaking to his fellow male housemates, Seyi said he will train his sons to ‘run a train’ on people’s daughters. ‘Run a train’ means when multiple men take turns to have sex with a woman with or without consent.
These had sparked outrage on social media and the Lagos Domestic Violence and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) weighed in to strongly condemn Seyi’s words.
According to the agency, Seyi’s words help perpetuate harmful attitudes amongst other and foster a culture of violence.
The agency wrote …
“We strongly condemn the comments made by Seyi Awolowo in the disturbing video that has surfaced. Such remarks perpetuate harmful attitudes and contribute to a culture of violence and abuse.
The bystanders’ passive response in the video is also deeply concerning because it only enables such behavior to persist. It is important for us all to actively speak up in circumstances such as this.
We remain committed to addressing issues of domestic and sexual violence. Call our 24/7 Toll Free Line at – 08000 333 333 to make a report and access support.
Together, we can work towards creating a society that truly values consent and is free from violence.”
Many Nigerians have also since condemned his comment.
Actress and mum, Lala Akindoju-Fregene, in her reaction, said Seyi’ comment is “disgusting” and smacks of irresponsible parenting.
