In reaction to Anjola’s story, Nancy gave her tips on how to avoid getting raped again.
A Nigerian lady, who claims to be a psychologist, identified simply as Nancy, has advised an alleged rape victim to dress decently to avoid getting raped.
The victim, Anjola Oluwa, had taken to Twitter to open up about being raped twice, and bragged about not being a bitter feminist despite her ordeal.
In reaction to Anjola’s story, Nancy gave her tips on how to avoid getting raped again. She admonished her to stop wearing short and tight clothes, dressing half-naked, and encouraged her to try wearing hijabs to avoid getting the attention of men.

“You got raped twice? So sad
Let me advice you as a psychologist1-Stop wearing mini skirts
2- stop dressing half naked
3- stop wearing tight clothes
4- pray hard
5- please try jihab you will thank me later.”

Her advise has, however, been met with massive criticisms on the micro-blogging platform, with many dragging her to filth for indirectly blaming women for getting raped by men.

This level of idiocy should be a punishable offence.”
