Lagos Nite Club owner, Pretty Mike (Mike Nwogu) who was arrested by the police recently for chaining girls like dogs parading them at events has explained the reasons for his action.

“There has been a lot of controversy over two of my outings holding some females on a leash. I apologise to all the women and the good people of Lagos State, Nigeria and the rest of the world, who feel dehumanised by this craft that meant well. I will use other platforms and formats to continue to create the necessary awareness.”

“Arresting Pretty Mike is an overreaction and an overreach. Why couldn’t we as a society reject him without the government forming morality police.”

However, he has written an undertaken at the police station not to chain ladies like dogs again: “I, Mike Eze Nwalie, aka Pretty Mike, of 21A Luma Street, Magodo GRA, do hereby undertake to stop whatever act of putting girls on leashes or any other degrading treatment to ladies and guys. I am aware that such act offends the law of Lagos State and if I repeat it, there will be legal action towards me. I undertake to issue a letter of apology to the public effective from Thursday 12th, January, 2017 on all my social media platforms.”
