‘Your narratives can put people’s lives at risk’ — Enioluwa slams GTCO fashion show critics
Nigerian actor and social media influencer, Enioluwa Adeoluwa, has warned critics attacking men over their outfits at the GTCO Fashion Weekend that their comments could put people’s lives and safety at risk.
Enioluwa spoke after videos of male attendees wearing unconventional outfits at the fashion event attracted criticism, with some social media users claiming that society was “losing its men.”
Reacting in a post on X, he accused critics of deliberately focusing on men dressed differently while ignoring others who attended the same event in regular shirts and trousers.
“It is a fashion show. A fashion show! Nobody is losing anything,” he wrote.

He argued that people who wanted to see men dressed according to their definition of masculinity should visit a stadium or gym rather than ridicule those expressing themselves through fashion.
Enioluwa also warned that disagreement with other people’s choices should not become an excuse to encourage hostility against them.
“There are things we all dislike or disagree with about other people, but that doesn’t give us the right to ridicule them or encourage hostility towards them,” he said.
Every second brings Nigerians closer to exercising their democratic right and shaping the future of our nation.
Exercise your democratic right responsibly, peacefully and lawfully.
He ended his message by urging social media users to use their platforms responsibly, adding: “We really need to be more mindful of the narratives we push, especially when we know, and have seen, how these narratives can put people’s lives and safety at risk. Leave people alone.”
