I Was A Virgin, R*ped & Infected With STI By An Entertainer - BB Naija Ifu Ennada

 

 

Evicted housemate of 2018 Big Brother Naija, Ifu Ennada, took to her instagram page to share issues about her 'Virginity, r*pe depression' story. 

 

It would be recalled that Ifu Ennada reportedly claimed she was a virgin while in the contest.

 

 

My Virginity Story; Rape & Depression

 

When I was in the Big Brother House emotions were raised when during a Truth or Dare game I said I'd not really had s*x.

 

People interpreted that as me claiming to be a Virgin.

 

The truth is in 2016 I was raped by someone in the entertainment industry, before then I was a Virgin. This person also infected me with an STI... I was also threatened by this person and was very scared of social media's bashing with the usual questions of "what was she wearing!" " why did she go to his house ?"... so in all my sadness and depression I decided to tell the world what had happened to me using film as a medium. 

 

I was inspired to write and produce my film - Tears of A Broken Virgin. I got a lot of help from social media - people volunteered to work for me free of charge even my director - Benny Atagame Alli.

 

Though some parts of my film is fiction, the bulk of it was inspired by my story. The lead character's name is Ada which is a short form of my name Adanne- popularly pronounced as Ennada.

 

Because of my sad experience I battled depression, developed trust issues and found it hard to connect with people especially men.

 

I wanted to tell my story and also pass a strong message to r*pe victims and r*pists...I hope I was able to do that with my film. I intend to expand this into a feature length film. I hope everyone out there is inspired to stand up against r*pe.
