Seyilaw makes u-turn, pleads on Kemi Olunloyo’s behalf

Sequel to the arrest of controversial blogger, Kemi Olunloyo, Nigerian comedian, Seyi Law has come to her defence, sort of.

This comes as a surprise to many as the blogger, before her arrest, had on countless times called out the comedian over his baby’s weight, warning him to control her feeding.

The comedian, who also clapped back at the blogger to seal the cold war between them, has had a change of heart and pleaded with the Port-Harcourt-based pastor who ordered her arrest to temper justice with mercy.

According to Seyi Law, ‘I was one of the few who was happy when they heard Madam Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo was arrested as I believed it will serve as deterrent to others who will just put out things to malign others.

‘I was also particularly happy that there is a cybercrime law as I was going to sue a blogger, Emmanuel Oko Ekpo Bricks in Abuja for writing and trying to defame my personality for popularity and even went as far as touring radio stations and granting video interviews claiming I was threatening his life despite the fact that I haven’t spoken with him before up till now.

‘Then, I thought of the mistakes I have made in life that could have kept me behind bars if the victims have decided to pursue the case(s) and I decided to take the path of forgiveness.

‘Madam Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo has never been entirely right and we must acknowledge that and instead of just going after the Pastor, we must ask that he should be kind enough to forgive.’

The comedian went on to ask for forgiveness on behalf of the blogger, ‘I don’t know if what Madam Kemi wrote about the Pastor was true, but what if it is not, we know what it means to have your character questioned, nonetheless we plead for his forgiveness. We can’t force it and so we plead for his forgiveness.’

‘I have read from people shouting hell on the Pastor and I just laughed as I know what some would have done if it was them. Please don’t forget that we are Humans first before Pastoral call. I therefore, plead with whoever is behind the case against Madam Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo to forgive for Christ’s sake.’

What do you think? Does Kemi Olunloyo deserve forgiveness in your books?
