Nkechi Blessing reacts to backlash over sex toy souvenirs

Actress Nkechi Blessing has reacted to the blacklash from critics over the sharing of dildos at her mother’s memorial party.

The 33-year-old sparked reactions after giving out the sex toys at the party she threw to celebrate the first anniversary of her mother’s death.

“I am not trying to say men are scum because I have a man but you sometimes need to help yourself for when you don’t have a man, this is my souvenir for the single ladies here, to help yourself,” Nkechi said while giving out the sex toys.

Many, however, slammed the actress for her actions which was described as ‘disrespectful and ‘shameful’.

Reacting to the backlash in a Twitter post on Monday, the controversial actress said those who are criticising her are hypocrites.

“Why is everyone attacking me… y’all are hypocrites. Good morning lovelies,” she wrote.

Nkechi also stated that some of those criticising her on social media do not take care of their parents as opposed to her, who made sure she cared for her mother before she died.

She said: “Even people wey don forget their parents wey never die sef dey talk. Everyone around me knows I don’t joke with my family.”

She went on to say that the cake and celebration was for her late mother’s posthumous birthday and that no one deserves any explanation from her because they were not there when she suffered with her family.

“25th was my mother’s birthday hence the cake and a little party to host a few friends. Not like you all deserve any explanations on I choose to do with my own life. Cus when we dey suffer/hungry I no see any of una, so make all of una try rest”, she added.
