Singer Simisola Bolatito Kosoko, aka Simi, has slammed Nigerians for digging up her posts in which she was fawning over the penis of a four-year-old boy. The singer was 24 years old when she made the posts.
The disturbing posts were made between 2012 and 2015.
In one of the posts, Simi said, “This 4 years old boy’s D is good. I’m not sorry.”
In a statement on Sunday night, the 37-year-old singer said she was not famous when she made the disturbing tweets and accused her critics of being a “faceless mob”.
“I haven’t been on Twitter today – but someone brought a few of my old tweets to my attention, and I can’t not address it. 14 years ago, I was 23, so I was definitely not a child. I’m not here to make excuses because I don’t have anything to make excuses for. What I can’t let anyone do is twist my story to fit false narratives.
“In 2012, I lived and helped out at my mom’s daycare while I was hustling my music. I tweeted everything that happened in my life, as we all did at the time. Kids can be mischievous. If a child did something I found funny, I tweeted about it. Kids are cute and lovable. I want to hug, kiss and cuddle them. I tweet about it. Nothing I tweeted was from perversion,” Simi said.
She added, “I was not famous, so maybe if I was, I would have understood that anything is open to whatever interpretation, including being used falsely by a faceless mob. I’ve never been depraved in my life. You can retweet all the tweets in the world about me loudly crushing on people I admire/d. Or being a cheeky young woman. I wasn’t trying to hide it, because I don’t have anything to hide.”
Nigerians on X began digging up sexually inappropriate tweets made by Simi over the past few days in the wake of TikToker Mirabel’s false rape claim.
In her explicit tweets made between 2012 and 2015, the singer disclosed her obsession with kissing little children at her mother’s daycare centre.
On March 14, 2012, she tweeted, “David has a crush on me. He kips comn close; actin lik he wana lock lips n den he puts his head on my lap.Shd I giv him a chance? P.S: Hes 4.”
“Ok so dis 4 year old kid is lying next to me……practically almost kissing me cos he’s gazing in2 my fone *blink* I’m nt abt 2brk d boys heart,” Simi tweeted on February 17, 2012.
“I love to kiss d kids at my mum’s daycare – they’re super adorable and I’m crazy about ‘em,” Simi posted on X on June 1, 2013. “I think I’m slightly obsessed with this child. instagram.com/p/9YyGF3n8Zm/,” her October 28, 2015 tweet stated.
Meanwhile, several of the posts have been deleted.
“My team has been deleting some of my tweets because of how sensitive it is for my family. To be honest, I did not want to. I have always spoken against rape and sexual assault even before you knew I existed.
“It’s not a costume I’m wearing, it’s who I am. I’ve never claimed to be perfect. I’ve never claimed to know everything. I said stop raping women. I stand by it,” said Simi.
