“What Is Their Crime?” — BBNaija’s Alex Unusual Questions Arrest of Homeless People in Lagos
Reality TV star and actress Alex Unusual has voiced her concern over the Lagos State Government’s reported crackdown on homeless individuals, calling for clarity and compassion in how the issue is being handled.
Taking to her Instagram Story on May 6, 2025, the former Big Brother Naija housemate reacted to disturbing reports of homeless people being rounded up, harassed, and detained—without clear explanation or due process.
“Can someone please educate me on why Lagos State is arresting homeless people?” she wrote. “I’m confused. Before it saddens me or ruins my day, I need to understand.”
Visibly upset, Alex added that the news had already taken a toll on her mood, questioning the justice in penalizing the most vulnerable members of society simply for being without shelter.
Her post has since sparked online conversations around homelessness, human rights, and the responsibility of government in addressing—not criminalizing—poverty.
