In another attempt to win over her remaining critics, social media influencer Omotara Akanni has apologised for the video where she appeared to tease a child beggar with a drink.
Omotara has seen her world take a dramatic turn since the video went public.
Although she has apologised multiple times for her actions, she released a new video via Twitter on Tuesday, speaking in three different languages – English, Yoruba and Hausa – and asked for another chance to be a “better person.”
“It’s been long weeks of lessons for me. I made a terrible mistake and I wish I could turn back the hands of time. I promise to be a better version of myself and be more kind and compassionate. Thank yall for the corrections,” Motara captioned the post.
The Ibadan-based influencer has been forced to open new Twitter accounts after her previous ones were suspended over the video which attracted far-reaching outrage, even to the French-speaking communities.
It was gathered that the video violated some Twitter policies.
Motara was also suspended from her role as public relations officer of a non-governmental organisation Brotherskeeper over the video.
The NGO also announced she ceases to be its member.
