30-year-old club owner, Mike Eze-Nwalie Nwogu popularly known as ‘Pretty Mike’, has been arrested for dehumanizing young girls by turning them into human puppies with chains round their necks. .
He was arrested on Wednesday by the police on the orders of the Lagos State Government. Nwogu was said to be cooperating with investigation and had given useful statement to the police and was released after signing an undertaking to desist from the act The undertaking read in part: “I, Mike Eze Nwalie, A.K.A Pretty Mike of 21A Magodo GRA, Luma Street, do hereby undertake to stop whatever act of putting girls on a leash or any other degrading treatment to ladies and guys. I am aware that such act offends the law of the State of Lagos and if I repeat it again, there will be legal act towards me. I undertake to issue a letter of apology to the public effective from tomorrow on all my social media platforms.” .
Speaking on the matter, the State’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Adeniji Kazeem said the State Government will not tolerate any anti-social behavior that attempt to dehumanize any citizen in the State. .
Kazeem restated the government’s determination to prosecute any individual or group of persons who violate any law of the State under any guise. “The Lagos State Government is committed to the protection of the rights of all citizens including children, women and all the vulnerable persons in the State,” Kazeem said.

Special thanks to Georgina Onuoha who called the attention of a lot of people to this nonsense by tagging some people in a social media post. Someone even criticised her, saying so what, one oyibo somewhere did it too Nigerians will never learn good and positive things from Oyibos, only the negative.

i criticized Onuoha over her comments.....and i still stand by it. The govt does not have right to arrest the man over a non criminal act. it is pure abuse of power. The govt can invite him and discourage him from doing it because many people don't fancy it. but to arrest and force him to sign an undertaking is pure arrogance.

The govt is set up and empowered by Law...and The law is a regulator of individuals within its jurisdiction....
In simple terms: the govt retains the right to regulate the life of its citizens in order to curtail their excesses....
You are right when you ask if the ladies in question ever complained. But, I ask: is there a human out there who would agree to be put on a dog-leash and dragged around publicly without pay?
There comes the factor of vulnerability and exploitation. The girls need money, the guy exploited them in the most inhuman way possible! The law is there to make sure that doesn't happen!

breaking the law of the land by Dehumanization, but was still given police protection whilst at it. Meaning the law enforcers were aiding and abetting him. Why arent those police men arrested too? And he was just released??? a pat in the back, I guess.,
