Nigerian porn actress, AfroCandy threatens to sue Instagram over closing her account
By Patricia Uyeh
Nigerian porn actress and movie producer, Judith Opara Mazagwu, popularly known as AfroCandy, has threatened to file a lawsuit against Instagram for discrimination, pain, heartache, frustration and prejudices.
The 45-year-old is not happy with the social media site for taking down a photo of her baring her boobs. She complained that Instagram also closed her account, whereas, that of rapper, Nicki Minaj, who posted something similar was allowed to stay.
According to her:
“So you removed my post and allowed #nickiminaj #NickiInPARIS on Instagram, why? What is wrong with mine? What is the difference? I feel discriminated here and I am calling a lawyer right away for all the distress, heartbreak, frustration and prejudices against me on this platform. I had to call you guys out. Enough is enough! Every time I post stuff that is not as provocative as posts I see on this IG, they take it down. I have cried enough and as I’m writing this, I feel so bad like my world is coming to an end, and I have to get both legal and maybe psychiatric help. They have caused me enough pain; I can’t take it anymore. #nickiminaj #NickiInPARIS #afrocandy#judithafrocandy #judithmazagwu#AfroCandy; it’s time to get to the bottom of this discrimination.”
In another post, the mother of two continued to rant: “So they removed my pictures; why is this one on Instagram for days now and it’s top post? I will wait for answers and I guess it’s time someone takes a legal action for discrimination. Enough of this bullshit, it’s not fair and can no more be tolerated.”
While some Nigerians have come out in support of AfroCandy, others condemn her for posting such photo in the first place.
