The Big Brother Naija 2018 second runner-up, Tobi Bakre, has explained the idea behind the horse photoshoot which has generated controversy.
Earlier on Wednesday, Tobi posted a picture of his photoshoot with the horse on Twitter.
The picture did not, however, come without backlash as many said he treated the animal with cruelty.
In another tweet on Wednesday, Tobi wrote that the picture was taken when the horse lost balance requiring him to hold him tightly to it.
“The horse jumped when I wasn’t quite expecting. I was losing balance. Horse was losing balance. The picture was taken inbetween trying to gain balance. After which I lost all the balance. Pls. No animal cruelty here o 😕. My country people sha,” he wrote.
Tobi Bakre came to limelight after finishing in the top 3 of Big Brother Naija 2018.
He was on Monday accused of intellectual theft of a photoshoot idea by a Twitter user, @shutterbouy.
