According to him, the judgement passed on them was neither defending Baba Ijesha rape case nor discouraging Iyabo Ojo and Nkechi Blessing’s stance on the matter.

The veteran actor further explained he would never tolerate any rape incident involving any of the members. He would let the law take its course rather than playing jungle justice.
