Summary
A Nigerian Twitter influencer known as Lummy (real name Opeyemi) has been accused by multiple women of sexual harassment and assault, ranging from unsolicited sexual calls and coercion.Â
A Nigerian Twitter influencer identified as Lummy (real name Pelumi) is facing mounting allegations of sexual harassment and assault after several women came forward on X(fromerly Twitter) on October 1, 2025Â to share disturbing encounters with him.
The controversy began on September 30 when user @omo_olobikan claimed that Lummy persistently harassed her online, following her across multiple platforms and sending repeated messages despite being ignored.
Her post triggered a wave of responses from other women who accused the influencer of predatory behavior.
One user, @Taye_d_vibee, described him as a pervert who called women and moaned on the phone without consent, and sent unsolicited sex tapes.
Another, @aaaadunni, said he was notorious for pressuring women to expose themselves on camera.
@sheisblank_ alleged that Lummy chased her late at night after she refused his sexual advances, threatening to slap her.
The most serious accusation came from @didivineeeee, who recounted that Lummy sexually assaulted her while she was asleep,
“Lummy touched me in my sleep, took my gown off and I woke up to his mouth on my breast. I got pissed and got off the bed and this stupid boy begged that he’ll leave the bed and let me sleep. only for me to wake up to him whispering in my ears and using my hand to jerk himself” She wrote
She later said he attempted to coerce her into sex, and prevented her from leaving his apartment by hiding her keys.
She shared video clips of him begging and trying to manipulate her into silence.
The allegations have ignited heated conversations on Twitter, exposing deep divides in how Nigerians perceive consent.
While some users condemned Lummy’s behaviour and emphasised that consent must be clear and ongoing, others blamed the victims for visiting his home or staying overnight.
One user, @YxngGlizz, claimed that “being in a relationship should automatically mean ongoing consent,” while @babydoll689722 argued that women who don’t want sexual advances should not sleep in a man’s house.
These views were strongly challenged. @elizaego responded, “Being in a relationship does not mean automatic consent. Your partner’s body is not your property. Sex without consent is rape.”
Similarly, @Wakaholic_nurse rejected the stay at home narrative, insisting that harassment can happen anywhere, from public transport to workplaces, and that responsibility should be placed squarely on perpetrators.
The revelations against Lummy have highlighted a broader cultural struggle in Nigeria over consent, victim-blaming, and accountability in cases of sexual misconduct.
