Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Natasha Akide, widely known as Tacha, has expressed disappointment over how Nigerians have reacted to actress Regina Daniels’ rape allegations, saying that being a woman in Nigeria “feels like a crime.”
Tacha criticized those who have been mocking the actress instead of demanding justice after she revealed that she was allegedly drugged, raped, and beaten.
Taking to her X handle, the reality star wrote: “Being a woman in this part of the world feels like a crime. Someone cries out that she been raped, drugged, and beaten, and instead of outrage, society starts dragging her for flying private jets and traveling the world.
“So because she lived well, she deserves to be abused? That’s the sickness of this society — a place where people justify violence against women but envy their freedom.
“At this point, what hope does the girl child even have? #ProtectWomen #Justiceforreginadaniels.”
Similarly, fellow Big Brother Naija winner, Phyna, also condemned the public’s attitude toward the issue. Sharing her thoughts on X, she wrote:
“A girl gets injected and raped in a man’s house, steady hospital yet everybody is laughing. Omo…Being a woman is hard.”
