Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has come under heavy fire of criticism following support shown gay Jussie Smollett.

The actor’s attack by homophobics had seen reactions pouring in from several countries with Tonto Dikeh and Bobrisky throwing their whole weight behind him.

However, Tonto Dikeh ‘s loyalty has however been questioned by Walter Shakespearean Ude who has asked where she was when the Nigerian police arrested several young men suspected to be gay.

Walter Shakespearean Ude wrote:

 

Tonto Dikeh is on Instagram sending love and light to Jussie Smollett. Saying no to homophobia. Declaring that nobody should be persecuted for who they love.

It is nice. I commend her.

I just wonder where her voice was when similar tragedies were occurring amongst her fellow Nigerians. When 57 boys were unjustly arrested. When the blogs turn homophobic attacks into sensational clickbait headlines.

It’s nice o. That we’re all rooting for Jussie Smollett is a beautiful act of humanity. But Jussie Smollett lives in a society with a system that will strive to get him justice.

What about the Jussie Smolletts in Nigeria? Where are the celebrity voices saying no to the injustices meted out on them?
