No stranger to controversy Queen

Ifrica’s daughter, Tanzania Barrett, has expressed doubts about some rape

allegations which were shared on Twitter by a user who has since

disappeared from the platform.

Jamaican Twitter was the site of much

buzz on Tuesday evening after an account, which surfaced a day earlier, began

sharing screenshots of stories from alleged rape victims.

According to Barrett, while she is not

seeking to discredit the alleged victims, she says their stories must be taken

with caution, as the allegations could be false.

“I don’t usually do this on my private story but me ago talk mek some of them people yah hear. Some of dem gyal yah lie bad,” said Barrett in a forty-three second clip which was posted to her Snapchat story.

“Dem lie bad! You get me. I am not

one to go around and discredit anyone ’bout dem sexual stuff -if them get rape

or whatever- no, I am not one to discredit you and seh is lie you telling but

if you read the story them dawg, you can tell that most of them is capped

– you can tell that it is capped, ” added Barrett who later went on to use

some curse words as she expressed her feelings on the matter.

18-year-old Barrett went on to say that

this was why she didn’t “mess with girls”, as they could be

“messy”.

Barrett’s Snapchat clip has been making

the rounds on social media with users criticising the teen for not being more

sensitive.

“Her madda must be really

disappointed,” said one Twitter user.

“Nuh her mother sing big tune on

these issues? How she a gwan suh?,” added another on Facebook.

Barrett is no stranger to coming under

fire on social media, as she felt the heat of public attention when she sided

with her half-sister and Tony Rebel’s daughter, Davianah, who sought to air the

family’s dirty laundry in public.

The duo back in January 2019 accused

their parents of being “self-centered”, “inconsiderate” and

“wicked “. `
