Music producer, Don Jazzy, has shared his opinion on the rape allegation against singer, D’banj, with whom he co-founded the defunct record label, Mo’Hits,
The 37-year-old encouraged the police to get to the root of the matter and urged all victims of sexual assault, to speak up, in tweets he shared on Thursday.
“This particular case saddens my soul but I am not competent to investigate or judge this matter. I implore the police to thoroughly investigate and courts to do justice.,”
He added, “No matter how long a lie lasts, the truth will always prevail. The fact is that one of them is a victim and the law will protect that person. I stand firmly against rape and all injustices against women, children and everyone including oppression. I urge all victims to speak out.”
A lawyer representing D’banj’s rape accuser, Seyitan Babatunde, on Wednesday told the Premium Times Newspapers that his client was arrested and coerced into recanting her statement.
Things took a confusing turn, however, when a tweet which appears to promote D’banj’s song, ‘Stress Free,’ was shared on Seyitan’s Twitter account with username @Seyitannn_.
