Comedian torn to shreds for ‘paedophilic’ tweet about Sarkodie’s 2-yr-old daughter

Comedian Warris has been torn to shreds by social media users for a tweet about rapper, Sarkodie’s two-year-old daughter, Titi.

The comedian, born Waris Abdul Umaru, tweeted that, “Sarkodie’s daughter is becoming RIPE. Very soon we ppl (people) will tear and eat”.

That post, unfortunately, did not go down well with many who described it as paedophilic.

Controversial feminism group Pepper Dem Ministries, disgusted by the post, shared the tweet on Facebook.

A little 2 year child I must add. Why would anyone in their right mind think this ok? It’s not funny, it’s very sick and disgusting.”
