Nigerians on social media bashed self-acclaimed entrepreneur Francis Van-Lare, who claimed to have slept with about 70 women and released their faces on the internet to celebrate his 70th birthday.
Van-Lare, who took to his verified Facebook page on Friday, released the now-deleted names and pictures of the women he had sexual relations with, adding that he is releasing a book next year that will have a list of the over 70 ladies’ names and pictures.
“70 years of reflection. Have you spoken to me before? I am creating a slideshow with 365 photos to play, Van-Lare said”.
“Over the rest of December, starting December 7, I think I am missing some names in London and Italy in the 1970s that I ‘poised’ that I need to appreciate.”
Highlighting their names in batches, he penned, “Amina Ali, Farida Hassan, Jamila Ahmed, Zainab Ibrahim, Nasra Omar, Samira Yusuf, Rahma Abdi, Faduma Hussein, Saida Jama, Habiba Mohamed, Aisha Abdi, Fatima Mohamed, Zahra Ali, Halima Hassan, Safiya Ahmed, Mariam Ibrahim, Khadija Omar, Hawa Yusuf, Asma Abdi, Naima Hussein, Leila Jama, Salma Mohamed.”
Others are Rukia Abdi, Hafsa Ali, Muna Hassan, Zuhura Ahmed, Sabrina Ibrahim, Nadia Omar, Yasmin Yusuf, Layla Abdi, Amira Hussein, Zahara Jama, Fatuma Mohamed, Asha Abdi, Nafisa Ali, Shukri Hassan, Hanan Ahmed, Rania Ibrahim, Sumaya Omar, Huda Yusuf, Maimuna Abdi, Salima Hussein, Ayan Jama, Fauzia Mohamed, Laila Abdi, Nadifa Ali, Sahra Hassan, Zeynab Ahmed, Raha Ibrahim, Suhaila Omar, Eseohe Akhigbe, and Osayi Lyoha.
In another video, Van-Lare advised young people who are looking up to him to start at age 15 to catch up with his records or do more than he had.
“Right now, at age 70, I do just two or three in a week, not like three or four that I do in a day at a tender age,” he added.
Chronicle NG reports on how Nigerians reacted to Francis Van-Lare’s claim of sleeping with about 70 women.
“What is this man up to? Most of these ladies are now wives. I don’t think this is necessary coming from someone of his age. I have never heard of a fool at 70 before. People close to him should advise him to drop all these shenanigans,” Adewale Damilare opined.
Ijeoma Ebisike declared, “Instead of this man repenting, knowing his end is near, he is busy celebrating sin.”
A psychotherapist said, “Granted that he’s profoundly foolish. Does he not have anyone within his circle that has a lick of sense? No one advised him against this folly. No one at all?”
Mr. Eniola wrote, “Only a jobless man will have sex every day.” Married or not married. Engaging with 2–3 women a day can be overwhelming and detrimental to your well-being. He just typed out names through permutation. He hasn’t slept with all of them.”
Ladytee said, “I hope this man understands the gravity of these actions.”
Jackson said, “I hope those ladies press for charges. For God’s sake, these are now married women.”
