30-year-old club owner, Mike Eze-Nwalie Nwogu popularly known as ‘Pretty Mike’ has complied with the directive of the Lagos State Government and Lagos State Police Command to tender a public apology for putting two young girls on leash and parading them at social events.

 

There was a strong outrage earlier this week after the co-owner of Club Uno, Ikeja, Lagos stormed a wedding ceremony with the same girls on dog leash on a second time.

 

Social media users were of the opinion that the female folks were been dehumanized and paraded as slaves.

 

The Lagos State Government under the administration of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode swiftly effected his arrest yesterday to curtail the act. Pretty Mike on being taken in, cooperated with the police and signed an undertaking to desist from the act.

 

He also agreed to apologize to the general public which he did earlier today, 12th of January, 2017.
