woman allegedly raped by Nigerian singer, Oladapo Oyebanjo, popularly known as D’banjMs Babatayo narrated how she was arrested on June 16, almost two weeks after going public with her story.
“In that cell, I had the right to remain silent, limited access to a lawyer, yet still oblivious to the crime I was being detained for. I spent almost 48 hours at the police station, without being charged for a single crime. When I requested to know the reason for the detention, the police refused to answer, but they continued to treat me like a criminal.”
“June 3, 2020: Following an online post by D’banj about saying no to rape, I called him out on his hypocrisy, by giving a detailed account of how he raped me in 2018.“June 5, 2020: I visited the police station to make a formal report, but was not attended to. “June 17, 2020: With various efforts, I was released from custody after being made to sign a gag order by the police and D’banj’s team, and could only post on social media what had been approved by D’banj’s team. I spent the night in a location of Dbanj’s team’s choosing, which was not made known to the public.
“This will help us kick-start the defence process and also help Seyitan herself. Thank you to everyone who lent their voice.”
