Nigerians Have No Right to Criticize Bobrisky as Shim Has Not Broken Any Law -- TV Host, Morayo Afolabi

 Morayo Afolabi-Brown, a TV host has defended Bobrisky's Best Dressed Female award win, asserting that Nigerians by lack grounds for criticism if Bobrisky hasn't broken any laws.

The TVC News anchor argued that since Bobrisky dresses as a woman, which isn't against Nigerian law, condemnation is unjustified. 

She emphasized the legality of cross-dressing compared to the prohibition of same-sex relationships under Nigerian law.

In her words:

‘’He is the conversation and is a very good example of the Nigerian factor. In one hand, Nigerians say they are against this, 14 years if you are caught trying to be with the same sex. There is no law against crossdressing, anybody can dress how they want to dress but the act or the perception of it, a person can be arrested or invited for questioning.

"On one hand, Nigeria is like No, on the other hand, we see this and skirt around the issue. This is a man who is well protected , he has never been questioned, arrested for his choices because we have not even seen who he is dating because if he is indeed a woman, he should be dating a man.

"There are conversations around this ‘Shim’ and it is confusing. So, when ‘shim’ goes for a competition with the ladies, why are we therefore feeling offended because ‘shim’ has changed body and ‘’shim' is a woman.

"This is my own stand. As long as this person has not broken any law, as long as the law has not arrested ‘shim’ for anything, we have no right to criticize ‘shim’ for winning a competition that ‘shim’ has offered herself to.

‘Shim’ is a Nigerian and should be respected and given that regard regardless of what ‘shim’ decides''
