There is nothing new about false rape allegation. Women have been weaponizing rape since forever. The thing about false rape allegation is that you don’t even have to be physically present to be accused. Justin UG was in America and he was accused of raping somebody in Abuja at the same time. Alibi saved him.
If you were here 2018 - 2020, we’re waking up to false rape allegation every morning.
- You sleep with a guy and regret your decision on the morning. RAPE
- You sleep with a guy and he did not give you enough money. RAPE
- You visited a guy and he did not like you like you liked him. RAPE
- You don’t like somebody’s tweet. RAPE
- The guy you like, likes your friend. RAPE
- You seduced a guy and he turned you down. RAPE
Potiphar’s wife falsely accused Joseph. I have seen Nwaboi that was falsely accused by madam and he was lovked up by Oga. Young men have been called rapists for refusing to sleep with babe that wants to sleep with them. They have been called rapists for refusing to date women that wants to date them. Somebody was beaten and sent to jail because his girlfriend couldn’t tell her father that she was already having sex, so she lied she was raped. A woman hates you, she calls you rapist. Even small disagreement on X and you’re already being called a rapist. It is weaponized at will and for convenience.
False rape allegation is not an exception. It is a common reality. Fake rape allegation is not why victims of rape are not getting justice. That is a diversion. Rape exist in our society because rapist exists. False rape allegations exits because women are weaponizing rape and getting away with it. The court will determine if rape did occur or not, and who the gavel should come down on. Until there is commensurate punishment for false rape allegation, it will not stop. Nothing ruins faster than false rape allegation. We have made progress by always investigating every allegation and asking for evidence before publicly destroying a person. But we also need punishment for it embedded in the criminal code.
Having said that, if someone falsely accuses you of rape, deal with them like you would anyone who made an attempt on your life, because that is exactly what happened.
