Socialite, Bobrisky has defended fashion designer, CEO Luminee, slamming critics who questioned her choice to welcome a child with actor Lanre Omiyinka, widely known as Baba Ijesha.
The defense follows a wave of online shock after Baba Ijesha and CEO Luminee announced they are a couple and have welcomed a newborn son together. The announcement sparked heavy criticism across Nigerian social media due to Baba Ijesha’s 2022 conviction for the sexual assault of a minor.
Big Brother Naija reality star Angel Smith publicly questioned Luminee’s decision to have a child with a convicted offender. Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday also voiced her utter disbelief on social media, questioning the reality of the announcement.
Reacting during an Instagram Live session, Bobrisky came forward to protect his friend, CEO Luminee. He questioned the moral standing of critics who expect an ex-convict to face perpetual condemnation after completing his jail time.
Bobrisky argued that critics were acting hypocritically, pointing out that people often unknowingly date individuals involved in serious crimes.
Turning his attention to Angel Smith, Bobrisky claimed she lacked the moral authority to judge others. He referenced her personal life, specifically highlighting her past marriage to a female partner that allegedly collapsed within 48 hours.
