“He wasn’t arrested but a lot of ppl heard about it…. and some stopped talking to the guy…. omo olomo.

“I don’t even know if she’s on twitter.I’ll do my findings and drag her ass here, I trust my twitter ppl.

“Baby girl was crying that day.I don’t know how to talk to the guy, walai I’m sad.

“Her mum reached out to him today, I’ll look for him too…. cos I don’t know him personally.

“Pathetic init?”
