Nigerian actress Rahama Sadau has responded to the controversy generated by the recent photos she posted on Twitter and Instagram.
Dateline Nigeria had reported how the photos drew mixed reactions from people on social media.
In a series of tweets on Monday, Rahama Sadau, said “it’s sad and unfortunate waking up to series of unexpected messages, tags and trends over the harmless pictures I posted.
“As a human, I laughed at some, frowned against many and disapproved most. To the most unfortunate event, some of these comments took a different dimension.”
She lamented the heated exchange between faiths even as she described some of the reactions as blasphemous.
“I’m with all sense of sincerity, dissociating myself from such derogatory and hurtful words. To everyone who knows me or follows me, should know I’m not the type that react to anything or embrace advice from social media moral police. But my Prophet and religion is where I draw the line.
“Any disrespect to my religion and Prophet regarding those pictures remain condemned and reprobated, not in any way and not on any event. The perpetrators should learn to separate people’s way of life and respect for their faiths.
“I remain defender of my Prophet in heart, online and offline. I deeply and sincerely apologize for the unseen circumstances that led to these avoidable, yet regrettable dramas.
“It’s in human nature to judge others and act as saint, I appreciate those who felt offended and decided to call me through DM’s, Text messages and phone calls. That’s true love and I’m never taking that for granted. EVER!
“Lastly, to the bloggers and everyone that saw a chance to trend, I do not wish for you what you wished upon me. Live & Let Live”
