The lady who accused Dbanj of rape has
finally opened up on her ordeal with the Nigerian police. This
is barely thirty six hours after I released an informed report on the rape titled
‘Dbanj, Rape and the Police’ where I lambasted the
irresponsible behavior of the police authorities in detaining her in police
cell with criminals for over 24 hours.
The lady, Seyitan Babatayo, had revealed that she was
detained for 48 hours with criminals and released into the hands of Dbanj, to
delete her tweets, hide evidences and proofs of the rape, and turned her into
an advert executive for the super star artiste.
I had argued in the report concerning the strange arrest
that,
“This is the height of
irresponsible behavior of the police. This lady was forced to delete her
tweets, and turn to advert executive for Dbanj new music which she was said to
be promoting on her social handle. The police abandoned this lady in cell with
criminals; she was probably slapped and maltreated by the criminals. The
lesbian inmates in the cell might have molested her. She was abandoned for more
than 24 hours without any bath, against the laws of the land, because a wealthy
artist was throwing money around”
