Khafi Kareem says she was raped
Khafi Kareem shared the harrowing experience via her Twitter page on Tuesday, June 2, 2020. According to her, the reason she didn’t report the rapist was because the one person she told about the incident, ended up blaming her for getting raped.
“#WhyIDidntReport – because he apologised right after. Because I made myself believe him being drunk was an excuse. Because the one person I did tell said I caused it. Because I felt dirty and ashamed. #WeAreTired,” Khafi Kareem tweeted.
“Yes, this did happen to me. I’m sharing in the hope that others will feel no shame in sharing what happened to them. Please don’t deflect or say it is not my story when it was already hard enough sharing it.”
Khafi Kareem’s tweets are coming on the heels of the recent protests over the rape and murder of a young student in Nigeria.
It would be recalled that on Saturday, May 30, a young lady, Uwa Omozuwa was raped and killed in Benin city.
