Here’s what she told Daily Newswatch:
Tell us more about your NGO
Yes, it is no more Pink sexy
ladies. We just changed the name. It all started like a child’s play,
more like BB stuff among us friends. You see, I have this passion to
give. We want to help the less privileged children.
Are all your members actresses?
No, they are not; we just have
few actresses there. We have business women from Nigeria and United
Kingdom. So many important personalities are involved, so I have to
change it from Pink Sexy Ladies to Pinkie Foundation. I am the president
while my friends are supporters.
But people are saying the group was formed to encourage lesbianism?
I think that story came up
because I am an actress. You know as an actress whatever I do is a
story; so there is no iota of truth in that story. I don’t support or
believe in lesbianism. I am actually sorry for lesbians; I had never
supported lesbianism, I don’t find it godly. We just formed it to help
one another; to help our businesses and to help empower women. We
contribute monthly for this project.
So you are saying that the group has nothing to do with lesbianism as being alleged
I established this group in 2001,
and its aims were to bring women together irrespective of age or social
class, support one another and share business and health ideas, as well
as improve family values. My foundation is not about that. Do I look
like a lesbian? I am not a lesbian. Nigerians like attaching irrelevant
things to something. But it hasn’t stopped me from achieving my goals.
80% of the women in the group are married with kids.
But what is your view about lesbianism?
I am not in support of
lesbianism? I don’t have a problem with those who practice it; it’s
their choice, but I don’t believe in it because it’s not normal. It’s
not biblical. I am not condemning the practitioners, but for me it’s
abnormal
Are you in support of lesbianism?
Why should I be in support of
lesbianism? I am not one who supports Lesbi. I don’t have a problem with
those who practice it, it’s their choice but I do not believe in it
because I don’t think it’s normal. It’s not biblical. I am not
condemning the practitioners but to me it’s not normal.
