Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh has also pleaded with the Ghanaian government to temper justice with mercy.
Advocating for her release on her Instagram page, Tonto said although the picture was classless and she could never do it, it is not enough reason to jail the actress.
Her post read, “One thing they always say is no one can tell a Mother how to bring up her Child. It only becomes society responsibilities when you are hurting the child.
“In this case I see no hurt here, Can I take same picture? No I wouldn’t, not even in the next life but I’m different doesn’t mean the Act is Totally wrong when it’s in the privacy of your home alone.

“Dear Nigerians please show some Love and support let us get this petition document filled up and get Our Girl back home,” Tonto Dikeh wrote.
