justice_for_daughter and Hypocrite
This is one of the most despicable events in recent time, the case of rape has been one of the most reported for weeks now. But the event that brought #justice_for_daughter to be among the top 3 Twitter trends today is regrettable and painful.
A girl who is 8 years old was ganged raped by eight men who she approached to ask for food because she was hungry. How would 4 men gang-rape a girl of 8 years?
The innocent and hungry minor was brutally raped because she approached these men who could as well be her father for food.
There have been several propositions for stiffer penalties for rapists, including castrating them, but passing them into law had been a high hurdle to cross.
We will keep #justice_for_daughter among the top Twitter trends and do more to show our grievances until justice is served and our girls and women are safe.
The second Twitter trend related to this is “Hypocrite.” Bollywood actors have been accused of being hypocrites because they kept due over the rape of a minor in India while they protested the killing of George Floyd.
They have been condemned for not speaking loud or even speaking at all against the brutal raping of the 8 years old.
Apple
There have been different protests across the world and one of the famous ones is the “Black Lives Matter” protest that resulted from the killing of an African American, George Floyd by some policemen.
This protest took days across the world and the strong message is centred around ending racism across the world. Blacks have been at the receiving end of different forms fo racism since the days of the slave trade.
But today, “Apple” is trending on Twitter because the company updated its voice-activated assistant, Siri to support the Black Lives Matter protest.
With the new update, now responds to the phrase, “all lives matter” in a new way.
As brilliant and impressive as this update is, many people are asking the company to do more in the fight against racism and also to make more fundamental changes to its voice-activated assistant.
Did you just call them Oliver Twist?
TheGreatestRealityShow
When you hear about this Twitter trend, I can bet you would have thought of different reality TV show like BBNaija, Ultimate Love, What Next, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, among many others.
But let me burst your bubble, this Twitter trend is not about a reality TV she, it is about a new book.
Anyway, reality TV shows have been helping Nigerians since 1900, especially during the lockdown when we needed as much entertainment as we could get.
The ongoing reality TV shows can still be described as lifesavers with the way the country is, no more depression, please.
