The Federal Government has responded to calls from Nigerians to investigate the alleged child sexual abuse at singer Simi’s mother’s daycare centre.
This came after Simi’s old posts on X surfaced on social media amid the rape allegation by a TikTok user identified as Mirabel.
The singer had raised concerns over the growing sexual assault culture in the country.
While explaining that almost every woman she knows is a victim of sexual assault, she recommended that rapists should be castrated.
Her post sparked an online exchange between her and others with opposing views.
Amid the controversy, some of the singer’s old tweets about her experience with children at her mother’s daycare resurfaced online, with users alleging that they suggested inappropriate intent.
Reacting to a call from netizens, the Nigerian government, through the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP, assured the public of its commitment to investigate every credible claim of child sexual abuse and misconduct.
NAPTIP in a post on its official X, urged anyone with concrete information or victims to reach out confidentially.
“If you have factual information, evidence, or were directly affected, please reach out confidentially via DM or email info@naptip.gov.ng.”
