Singer Emma Chukwugoziam Obi popularly known as Emma Nyra has voiced out on the victimisation of a sexual accuser by fellow singer D’banj stating that everyone should be held accountable to their crimes regardless of their wealth.
She said this on Twitter while weighing on the continued saga between rape victims and accusers pointing out that silencing a victim is a continued emotional abuse on the victim.
She wrote, “If we as a society do not come to the aid of women who have been preyed upon and taken advantage of, then how can we expect them to have the courage to speak up?! It’s high time that any victims of Rape or abuse are treated accordingly and as a victim of heinous crimes.”
“Silencing a victim or shaming a victim is further emotional abuse upon the suffering and damage that has already been done! It’s time to hold everyone accountable for their actions regardless of their wealth or social status! Victims are not criminals!
If there are any victims of abuse who do not have the courage or strength to speak up please get in contact with me and I will assist you as best as I can. I will always offer my help to you as best as I can. We are survivors and we are stronger together.”
“This is the truth about the industry. Imagine what’s happening right now is what you have SEEN. Imagine all the things that you haven’t heard or SEEN. #justiceforseyitan.”
She also called out celebrities who are speaking up now but turned a blind eye when she complained about an artist who did same to her.
“I can see all the male celebrities and notable figures that I told my story to in confidence trying to speak up for abuse now. You lot still kept working with the same man. Its actually making me sick. I feel so sick right now.”
Recall that Emma Nyra was signed under Ubi Franklin’s MMM records and both of them had an affair which ended badly.
She had her twins last two years.
