Female Fans Blast Comedian Basketmouth Over ‘Rape Joke’

Award-winning Comedian, Basket Mouth took to his Facebook page some hours ago and put up a ‘Rape Joke’.
 
The joke, however did not go down well with many of them, especially the female fans.
In the joke, Basket Mouth had said ‘White Girls’ will get sex on the 3rd and final date, while African girls get rape on the 9th date.

On realizing how much anger the post had sparked up, he immediately deleted it and apologized saying “Ok guys, I’m sorry about the rape joke,I won’t crack such jokes again, I’ll just stick to jokes about Men being able to marry under-aged girls in Nigeria. #Rimarima”.


He further posted this on his facebook page “My people, I have a daughter that I would give my life to protect, a wife that means the world to me, a mother that made me the man that I am and anything that is done for any woman is less than she deserves for the role they play in our lives.

I would never in a thousand lifetimes encourage rape, I posted a joke that many clearly misunderstood and have found offensive and I sincerely apologize, the intention however was to highlight an unfortunate trend and the ridiculously flawed comparison between money & the worth of a woman.

So to all women, the ones that make our lives colourful, the ones we owe our lives..literally, our pride, our money choppers, the true stronger vessels, this is me, Bright Onyekwere Okpocha saying, I no dey crase to promote rape.

Accept my humble apologies if it was misunderstood. It wasn’t meant that way by a long shot. One love.”
