Top Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has joined the list of able Nigerians to express concern over the increasing reports of rape and other sexually related offenses across the country.
Yul Edochie says that indecent dressing is not an invitation for rape.
The actor turned politician made this known in a tweet on his Twitter page on Sunday, June, 8, 2020.
In his post, Yul stated that even though he is not in support of ladies dressing indecently, it shouldn’t be a yardstick for any woman to be raped or sexually harassed.
He also advised men who demand sex in exchange for money to never resort to rape or other violent means when the lady refuses to grant consent after payment.
He wrote: “I do not encourage indecent dressing. But no matter how indecently dressed she is, guy it’s not an invitation for rape. If you both agreed on pay as you go, you pay, she no wan give you, get ur money back through non-violent means. Do not touch her. There’s no excuse for rape.”
