tape of the winner of Miss Anambra 2015, Miss Chidinma Okeke.
tape of the winner of Miss Anambra 2015, Miss Chidinma Okeke.
Okeke is currently embroiled in a lesbian s*x tape scandal, which has since gone viral on the internet, which shows her on a lesbian act with Ada,who is reportedly one of her close friends and happens to be her personal assistant and also the 3rd runner up at the queen of democracy 2014.
The National Coordinator of the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, in a statement issued on Friday, requested that the country’s policing institution must not stand by and allow alleged blackmailers have a field day, even as the rights group asked for measures to safeguard the life of the embattled Miss Anambra 2015.
HURIWA also dismissed as hasty and totally unacceptable, the decision of the organizers of the Miss Anambra Beauty pageant to hurriedly announce the dethronement of Miss Okeke as the reigning Miss Anambra beauty queen even before the law enforcement authorities could conclusively verify the authenticity or otherwise of the so-called Lesbianism s*x tape and the motive for the leakage.
It affirmed that the Jungle justice meted out on the young Nigerian girl on the basis of an alleged s*x tape that has not being forensically investigated and conclusively verified and the entire gamut of the ulterior motivation for the leakage uncovered, is completely antithetical to the principle of rule of law as enshrined in section 36 (5) of the Nigerian Constitution which states “Every person who is charged with a criminal offence shall be presumed to be innocent until he is proved guilty; Provided that nothing in this section shall invalidate any law by reason only that the law imposes upon any such person the burden of proving particular facts.”
The rights group expressed trepidation at the reported decision of Miss Okeke to stay away from a pre-planned media briefing for fear of her life since she alleged a plot to eliminate her if she discloses the underlying facts behind the entire controversial s*x tape.
HURIWA called on Governor Willie Obiano as the Chief Security Officer of Anambra State to also take measures to prevent any attempt at silencing the embattled beauty queen.
It noted that a statement signed by the Chairman, Chief Executive of Anambra Broadcasting Service, ABS, organizers of the pageant, Nze Uche Nworah disowned the queen for her action in the video , saying that the pageant was set up to maintain high moral standard and to empower young ladies from the state.
The rights group further averred; “We use this medium to urge the Inspector General of police to personally step into this matter of Miss Anambra 2015 s*x tape scandal by First and foremost deploying the best forensic investigators to conduct transparent, open and an acceptable investigation with a view to unraveling the person and circumstances behind the leakage of the s*x tape and the reported threats to the life of Miss Anambra 2015 winner- Miss Chidinma Okeke.”
