Justina Dauda, a Taraba State University student, has graduated at the tender age of 19 and as a ‘virgin’.
On Sunday, January 16, the Political Science and International Relations graduate announced herself as Taraba State’s youngest potential corps member on Facebook.
“I shed tears when I saw my name among the list of graduating students. Free to call me corper Justina (virgin corper)” she wrote.
“Youngest corper from taraba state at the age of 19. It can only be God”
Just as expected several social media users trooped to the comment section to congratulate her. Ghgossip culled some reactions below;
In other news, Femi Branch, an actor, has weighed in on crossdresser Bobrisky’s brouhaha with Edo state residents last weekend.
Remember how Bobrisky was in the state for an event and used his Snapchat to convey his delight at being there? With utmost delight, he called on the Oba of Benin to marry him.
The state’s residents were outraged, and they came out in force to protest him for making such disparaging words about their cherished monarch, as well as to threaten to deal with him if he was seen at the event for which he came.
Bobrisky was notably absent from the function he was supposed to attend due to the threats he had received. He also apologized publicly for his remark.
Femi Branch claimed in an Instagram live session that Edo indigenes came out to denounce Bobrisky’s remark because they revere their king. The actor wondered if this could happen if Bobrisky requested a Yoruba king to marry him.
“A lot of people meet me and say, ‘I don’t really watch Nigerian movies but I watch your own movies’. With due apologies, that is one of the dumbest things people say. Is my own movie a Togolese one? That is one of the reasons I respect Benin culture.
Look at what happened recently. Bobrisky made a joke. But, there are some institutions you don’t joke with.
Bobrisky could say he is a Yoruba guy (or babe); however ‘she’ wants to be addressed. He must have been seeing how some Yoruba Obas have been behaving in recent times. That must have made him feel he could make such a comment about the revered Oba of Benin. It was when he made that statement he realized the Oba of Benin isn’t just any king.
Some people thought the reactions were a bit too much but Benin people don’t joke with their culture. And that is because the Oba of Benin does not ‘carry himself’ anyhow.
Our culture and tradition are dying by the minute and people don’t even seem to be concerned. There was an uproar by the indigenes of Benin because they don’t joke with their king and their king also doesn’t joke with their tradition. Do you think if Bobrisky had made such a statement about a Yoruba oba, people would have talked? Let us tell ourselves the truth. Is it normal to see our kings on Instagram frolicking with ‘commoners’?”
