The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) has strongly condemned a statement made by a Big Brother, BBNaija All Stars housemate, Seyi Awolowo, the great grand son of Obafemi Awolowo over his male children running trains on girls.

Seyi Awolowo, during a conversation with WhiteMoney and Soma after the Saturday night party, said “I’m giving birth to boys so they will run trains on people’s daughters.

“I have opened a miscellaneous account for my son to use and have sex with people’s daughters.

“I’ll give him my car key and key to the guest house to knack “his” daughters.”

However, DSVA in a statement on Sunday, said, “We strongly condemn the comments made by Seyi Awolowo in the disturbing video that has surfaced. Such remarks perpetuate harmful attitudes and contribute to a culture of violence and abuse.

“The bystanders’ passive response in the video is also deeply concerning because it only enables such behavior to persist. It is important for us all to actively speak up in circumstances such as this.

“We remain committed to addressing issues of domestic and sexual violence. Call our 24/7 Toll Free Line at – 08000 333 333 to make a report and access support.

“Together, we can work towards creating a society that truly values consent and is free from violence.

“It’s important that parents and guardians do not endorse behaviors in their children that would propagate harm, disrespect, and gender inequality.”
