Baba Ijesha Loses Ambassadorial Deal After Allegedly Molesting Minor

Posted: 06 May 2021 10:00 PM PDT

Nigerian actor, Baba Ijesha, loses his position as an ambassador to Matrix Homes & Properties Limited after allegedly molesting a 14-year-old girl.

Matrix Homes confirmed, in a press statement, that the company has dissociated itself from Baba Ijesha because of the atrocities the actor committed, which are against the firm's values.

"Matrix Homes and Properties Ltd wishes to bring to the attention of our customers and members of the public that Omiyinka Olanrewaju James AKA Baba Ijesha has ceased to be a brand ambassador of our company.

"… following his recent misconduct, which is antithetical to our company's values. Matrix Homes and Properties, therefore, disassociates itself in entirety from Baba Ijesha," the statement read.


Days ago, Baba Ijesha confessed to molesting the minor. He confirmed he sexually harassed Comedienne Princes' foster daughter twice–when she was seven years and 14 years old.

Tonto Dikeh – ‘Anyone Found Guilty Of Rape Should Be Sentenced To Death By Firing Squad’

Posted: 06 May 2021 09:00 AM PDT

Nollywood thespian Tonto Dikeh says rapists should receive death sentence by hanging, firing squad, lethal injection or electrocution.

The controversial actress stated this in a recent interview with Punch when narrating how rape is a violence against women, and an infringement on women's rights, privacy, self-preservation and dignity.
 
In her words; "In Nigeria, cases of rape are fast assuming a threatening dimension that requires urgent intervention. Rape, like other forms of violence against women, is an infringement on women's rights, privacy, self-preservation and dignity."


She continued; "There is little or no policy or law that protects the victims as they are most times blamed, stigmatised and humiliated by society if it is brought to the public domain. This hinders victims from embracing a mindset of reporting such an inhumane crime to the appropriate authorities."

"I believe that any person found guilty of rape should be sentenced to death either by hanging, firing squad, lethal injection or electrocution. I would also recommend castration. Rape cases and sexual molestations have become the order of the day, and the victims are not getting enough justice. Most of these perpetrators still walk freely," Tonto Dikeh added.

Tonto Dikeh's comments were reactions to the ongoing rape allegation levelled against Yoruba actor Olarenwaju James popularly known as Baba Ijesha, who was caught on tape molesting a 14-year-old teenage girl.

"Our God is faithful, He never lies and He does whatever He says. So I'm here today, it's been a long journey. I had an opportunity to spend time with Him, it's a rare privilege to spend time with Him and He told me a lot of things and He said, He has been waiting for me. So, He is happy to receive me. God has been very intentional about me."


"He is very mindful of me. I'm not here because I want fame. I've had all of that and I think I've had enough of all of that. So, right now is the time to work for my father. He is the one who has called me, I did not bring myself here."

"As a matter of fact, I did not want to be here but I'm going into ministry in full force. So, most of you might not understand my ways because you don't know where I'm coming from, and that is because a lot of time has been wasted. So, I need to catch up with time. I'm moving with time, there is no time."

"The enemy has been winning for too long. I've had my share of influence and all of that, but now I'm using all of that, everything the enemy thought he had given to me though was given to me by God, while he was lying that he gave them to me, now I'm using all of that to work for my father."

"So, when you see me doing some very extreme thing, just understand where I'm coming from, there is no time. There are too many people out there we have to bring back into the house. Jesus is coming soon, sooner than you expect. So we cannot allow them to miss out on that. Now is the time to do the work". she said.
