Justice, Mr. Adeniji Kazeem, the State’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice said the Lagos State Government will not condone or tolerate any anti-social behavior that attempt to dehumanize any citizen in the State.

“The Lagos State Government is committed to the protection of the rights of all citizens including children, women and all the vulnerable persons in the State,” He said.

Controversial media personality Kemi Olunloyo and video vixen Venita Akpofure have also been involved in a Twitter spat over Pretty Mike’s actions when the latter lambasted the club owner for paying peanuts to girls just so he can put them on a leash and walk them around like a dog when he goes to events and the former defended him saying it is a trend common outside Nigeria.
