Simi who voiced her concern over the fact that some people have committed evil deeds in the open without fear of consequences, yet their fans continue to stand by them in public.
Simi claimed that she had lost all respect for some individuals who had supported an election that had been tarnished by violence, intimidation, and manipulated results.
Furthermore while admitting that everyone is entitled to their opinions to make their own decisions, Simi exclaimed that publicly applauding evil deeds is not a show of courage or strength.
She wrote:
“A lot of people have surprised me this election. Lost whatever respect many have had for them.
“‘It’s my choice’ is fair; but when people do wicked things in daylight without fear of repercussion, and you still support them, it serves you better to do it quietly.
“You’re not courageous, or brave, or strong in the face of adversity. You’re ignorant. And proud,”
