However, in a series of tweets, Bello apologized for his action as he noted that the comment was made “during the heat of the moment”.

“A few days ago, I made a comment that was wrong, unbecoming and contrary to the values on which I was raised. I wish to withdraw the statement and apologise to the gentleman concerned for the hurtful comment. I also apologise for appearing to attack and entire ethnic group for the misdeed of one person,” the statement read.

“I regret the sexual innuendo in the private message and apologise unreservedly for it. I wish to state very strongly that the statement was made during the heat of the moment and I wish to put on the record that I do not condone sexual violence.”

Bello noted that there can be no justification for gender-based crimes, adding that the experience had taught him how to behave better subsequently.
