Concerns over latest Oge Obi tweets after she confirms she was Kemi Alabi of BBC Sex For Grades

Following controversies over not getting due credit for her contribution to BBC Sex For Grades documentary, Oge ‘Kemi Alabi’ Obi has the public alarmed over her recent tweets.

On 13th December 2020, after posting cryptic tweets like “pointless” and then “cyanide or ricin?”, she posted a worrying video of herself crying.

Started reading newspapers as a pretend news anchor when I was just a little girl. All I wanted to do with my life was to be the next Christiane Amanpour or Anas Aremeyaw.

Before these tweets, she had taken to Twitter to reveal that she had been an important part of the scandalous Sex For Grades documentary that aired on BBC Africa.

Many Twitter users had taken her tweet to be directed at award-winning journalist Kiki Mordi. But Oge Obi chose to remain as in the shadows as possible.

“I mentioned no names, tagged no one but you see the thing about guilt, it would make you wear shoes that probably aren’t for you.

“I’m the only one who knows what my tweets are about but carry on with connecting whatever dots you want to connect. It fits you guys’ agenda,” one of her tweets read.

However, Oge Obi also revealed that she was actually the “Kemi Alabi” that was mentioned by both BBC and Kiki Mordi in recognition of her contribution to the documentary.

In Fact, one of Kiki’s tweets read; “And to #KemiAlabi, you might be anonymous but my country is filled with #KemiAlabis and because of you, the feel a little less alone. [sic] Thank you!”

People concerned over Oge Obi and her mental state have been tagging Mentally Aware Nigeria and The Voice of Mental Health to reach out to her.
