The first lady of Banky W‘s led EME Records label and Nigeria songstress Niyola, was interview about few minutes ago on leading Nigeria urban music channel SoundCity TV.
The ” Toh Bad ” crooner Niyola, was interview on SoundcityCityDivas show with Pearl Cardy, EME ‘s first lady, Niyola, open ups on how she was molested, like many women, while growing up.
“I have been molested quite a number of times. Thankfully, I haven’t been raped. I have been molested by both people I never imagined would molest me…and obviously strangers as well. And it wasn’t once, it wasn’t twice. It wasn’t three times. But what helped me was that I started to try to figure out at that time why anybody would want to do that to me or to any female. I realised it was cowardice. Alot of things could be done to prevent the situations and protect yourself. I for a very long time, I would never visit guys. And when I started to live alone when I was in school, you would never come to my room for any reason. For a very long time I was paranoid. But I realised that if you share your experience with people, your fellow women, you will find that it’s not that big a deal that you can’t come out and talk about it because it’s not your fault.that somebody tried to molest you. Such people should actually be punished and brought to book.”
