I wasn’t trying to seduce the President –Seyi Shay




Many entertainers have been having fun with President Goodluck Jonathan in recent times.
The president, who was in Lagos last week, had some interesting moments with some of the celebrities.
Singer, Seyi Shay was among the entertainers and the pretty diva ‘broke’ the Internet with the dress she wore to meet the president at the event.
The picture where the singer, wearing an incredibly short dress, while sitting beside the president, went viral and so many fans and foes have expressed their feelings concerning her outfit.
Comments
Muli Amidu: There is a way to appear before the king and there are other ways not to appear before him. There is apparel that is fit for a meeting with a king and others that are impugning and insulting. One is, however, not sure, if the President considered Shay’s dress insulting as some people did.
Somebody: Recently, Obama hosted some basketball players. The players wore suit and tie except one who did not wear tie. The White House referred to the dressing as “rude and improper.”
Prof: One thing I consider terrible about Nigerians is their holier-than-thou attitude. Many of them pretend to be angels in the public whereas they are indecent people in the private.
Some marry underage girls while they preach indecency in the public. Some people who condemn Shay may have been doing things that are more terrible in the private.
Concerned: There is a marked difference between what happens behind closed doors and what happens in the open.   Where you put the two together, it becomes diversionary.
Pheliciti: The issue is would the president have tolerated her daughter if she dressed as Shay did. Should he, as a Christian have corrected her?
Timothy: As a leader, there are things you say or do to earn the respect of your followers. If he advised her against such a dressing, it would have gone a long way to show that he is a man of high moral standards. But accepting her as one of those things says a lot about the decadence of our values.
Begy Ozaluoku: Go to all the churches in the country and see nudity in display. First, we should correct ourselves before going out to lecture others on morality.
Point Blank: But you should also remember that your liberty and freedom terminates where another person’s begins. If you are free to dress half-nude, others have right to detest it.
Truthhurtsalot62: This is why we speak about the need for a change. It is high time our women learnt that they do not have to dress scantily in the name of being famous.
Bimbo: I wonder when men will get off their moral high horse and leave women to lead their lives. Nigerian men chase anything in skirts and lack respect for their wives. It is only when women are concerned that everybody starts screaming a prophet.
I am an active pro-Buhari; I have even donated twice to his campaign.
I want change as badly as well. But change has nothing to do with Shay’s skirt. When men misbehave, the heaven does not fall. But when it involves a woman, it looks like the end of the world.
Keu4Success: Look at the little girl saying she only wore that incredibly short dress for performance. Does her African culture not teach her how to present herself in the public and how to honour people whom honour is due? Can she wear the same dress to sit down with her dad?
