Nigerian on-air personality (OAP) and actress, Omotunde Adebowale-David, better known as Lolo 1 has stated that she was raped by a coworker six years ago.
She revealed that she still struggles with the horrific rape experience and that seeing the perpetrator causes her to go into panic mode.
According to sources, Lolo 1 revealed the information on a recent Say My Piece podcast episode.
She talked about how hard it is for rape victims to come forward and revealed that the individual who assaulted her is now well-known in the television profession.

The actress went on to say that she is not yet ready to share her entire experience.
I’m not prepared to share the narrative, and as a woman, I hardly ever say this. I have only ever been raped once, and it was by one of our coworkers. Every other day, I get to visit him. Are you aware of my level of trauma? I simply get into a brief panic when I see him, but if a lady of my quality were to name him, he would be well-known in the broadcast community. Wouldn’t people ask why Lolo hasn’t said it for the past six years?
She is speaking now that he is occupying a prominent position on television. The first thing a woman experiences after being sexually assaulted is disbelief that “this did not happen.”
Self-crucifixion follows, with the question, “I caused it for myself; how did I allow it to happen? What was there for me to do? “All of these are taking place while you are processing,” she explained.
