Nigerian singer Simi has stirred controversy on X after her strong remarks about rape and false accusations triggered widespread reactions online.

The discussion began after a TikToker accused an unnamed man of rape. Reacting to the allegation, Simi expressed anger and called for harsh punishment for offenders, writing: “I’m sickkk of this. STOP RAPING WOMEN. They need to castrate rapists and burn them.”

Her post quickly drew responses from users who shifted the focus to false accusations. One person asked: “Including the false accusérs too? Auntie Simi.” She responded briefly: “Stfu.”

Another user pressed further, asking: “Dear Simi, what about false rape accusers?” She replied: “What about them?? Why are you asking me about something I didn’t talk about? Why is your response to ‘stop raping women’ >> ‘what about false accusers?’ WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH WHAT I SAID????”

In a separate post, Simi explained the emotion behind her comments. She said nearly every woman she personally knows has experienced sexual assault and criticized the tendency to derail conversations about abuse by bringing up the rare cases of false accusations. “If you lie, you should face consequences but that’s not the conversation I’m having. Nor is it one I’m interested in having,” she wrote.

She also urged men to hold other men accountable and highlighted the fear many women live with daily. “Women are terrified to go out. Women in their homes are not safe either. Ask your sisters. Ask your female friends and your girlfriends. Ask your wives. We’re not all crazy. STOP RAPING WOMEN!!”

Sharing her personal precautions, she added: “I take a fucking pepper spray when I walk outside alone or with my daughter. Do you think I’m scared of other women? If you’re not a rapist and people calling out rapists bother you, you need to sit and have a conversation with yourself. Because why are you triggered if you’re not guilty???”

Her statements have since sparked a broader conversation on social media, with many debating issues of sexual violence, accountability, and the ongoing tension between addressing abuse and discussing false allegations.
