Nigerian-born UFC star, Israel Adesanya, popularly known as the Last Stylebender, has claimed that most ladies living in Lagos are hookers, widely known as “runs girls”.
Speaking in a video shared via his official X handle on Monday, Adesanya said Lagos ladies like showing off, but proceeds of prostitutes are financing their lifestyles.
Speaking in Yoruba, Adesanya said, “Lagos women like to feel themselves and are proud. Most of you are runs girls. I know the meaning of runs girls now. Kobo kobo, ashewo.
You want to show off. Keep posing and showing off. Nonsense. Just be nice, be friendly, say hi.”
Recall that Adesanya arrived in Lagos last Wednesday to a warm reception after his fourth-round submission loss to South Africa’s Dricus Du Plessis in their middleweight title showdown at UFC 305 in Perth on Saturday night.
The comment from Adesanya has generated reactions of netizens who aired their opinion about the video.
Sharing her opinion, an X user, @shy_missie wrote, “Typical naija man. If they try to talk to you and you don’t respond, or you respond in a way they don’t like, next thing is to slut shame.
But you sef see, even ashawo dosent want you 😂.Even with money, still pathetic.”
Another X user, @thatgirltife wrote, “Almost everyday on this app, you people slutshame Lagos babes, call them gold diggers and ashawo. Now they’re not interested in you, you’re still doing the same?😂 Ashawo kobokobo but they don’t want your money? Lmaooo.”
@Omoseeke said, “Of course, he’ll use the fastest weapon men use when they feel powerless – slutshaming.
Accept advances 🤝🏾 slutshamed.
Reject advances 🤝🏾 slutshamed.
No surprises here as there is no version of woman who cannot be seen as a prostitute.”
