Nigerian actress Omotunde Adebowale-David, widely known as Lolo, has voiced her deep concern over a disturbing trend on TikTok where young girls are exposing their breasts on camera.
In an Instagram video posted on Wednesday, Lolo expressed her distress after viewing a video of a young male TikTok user encouraging girls to participate in this so-called “challenge.”
She was further dismayed to see numerous young girls complying.
“I am not happy today at all,” Lolo stated in her video. “I saw a video on TikTok where another TikToker, a young boy is asking girls to flash their breasts on TikTok. And I see different girls, not one, not two, not three flashing their naked breasts on TikTok and people are watching. And I am wondering what is happening and they told me it is a challenge.”

Lolo connected this alarming trend to the increasing rates of sexual assault and violence against women and girls, stressing the urgent need for greater protection and awareness.
“We are already seeing girls being raped on a daily basis, not just raped, killed, assaulted and abused and yet our young children are not having the sense to keep their modesty,” she lamented. “We need to stop this. Where are our mothers, caregivers and guardians? Our wards are going astray on a daily basis. As a mother, I am unhappy, because I saw it with my two eyes.”
In her caption, Lolo called for stricter regulation and control of social media content, writing, “This made me very sad, and I can’t just sit down and do nothing. I will continue to advocate for some kind of control of social media because the things seen are just beyond me!”
