Nollywood Actress Mary Njoku has taken to social media to support her colleagues Nkechi Blessing and Iyabo Ojo amidst the Theater Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria ban.
Since the duo’s suspension, there have been several mixed reactions from Nigerians who felt the judgment was way too irrational.
According to Mary, these two women are her crush because they were bold enough to speak against the case of child molestation involving their colleague Baba Ijesha.
The actress added that Nigerians don’t react enough to rape and child molestation allegations, which is detrimental to society.
She wrote:
Where there are allegations of rape or child molestation there is no such thing as overreaction. Today in Nigeria I don’t believe we are reacting enough. I stand with and want to thank these two strong women who have used their time and platforms to speak up against it. You both are my crush Today and always
KFN recalls that Veteran Actor Jide Kosoko, during a press briefing, declared the ban which barred directors in the association from working with the two Nollywood stars. According to him, the punishment is for tarnishing the image of the association and the movie industry in public.
