Regarding the Petition to Boycott Saipul Jamil, Nikita Mirzani: You're Too Exaggerated If You Have to Boycott

Kapanlagi.com - The petition to boycott Saipul Jamil has recently become a hot topic on social media. The public has been signing a petition to ban his appearance on television after his excessive and non-educational glorification of freedom.

Not only netizens, this issue has also caught the attention of several Indonesian celebrities such as comedian Ernest Prakasa, Kemal Palevi, Najwa Shihab, Cinta Laura, and many more. And now, it's Nikita Mirzani's turn to give her comment.

Through a live Instagram session recently, Nikita voiced her opinion about the boycott movement against Saipul Jamil in the television industry. Unlike other artists, she reminded netizens that this is not actually their business.

"My response to Saipul Jamil, who has just been released from prison, is that you're too exaggerated if you have to boycott him, because he has already served his five-year sentence," said Nikita irritably.

1. Not a Minor Victim

"I'm not defending Saipul Jamil, no. But I'm speaking for myself. Don't say that I'm pro Saipul Jamil, I'm not pro him," said Nikita.

It doesn't stop there, Nikita Mirzani also emphasized that Saipul Jamil has already served a 5-year sentence as a consequence of his actions. So, it is not the right of others to label him as a sexual offender or pedophile.

"I'm voicing what I want to voice, from my thoughts and conscience as a human being, created by God," added the mother of 3.

Moreover, Nikita knows that the victim of Saipul Jamil's abuse is not a minor. She denies that the victim is under 17 years old.

2. There are Many More Important Issues

"Logically, people already know that Saipul Jamil is crooked, they already know. Why would that child be taken to his house? That child was found, if I'm not mistaken, the victim was a paid audience, they definitely knew (that Saipul is crooked)," said Nikita.

Furthermore, Nikita also stated that there are many more important issues and problems than wasting energy boycotting Saipul Jamil.

"There are so many issues in this country. Stop discussing someone who is already free, how can't he have a life? It's pitiful that he's being bullied by you all, he's probably mentally affected now," she explained.

As usual, Nikita's words went viral and spread to many gossip Instagram accounts. Many agree with her statement, although there are also some who criticize Nikita for not showing empathy towards the victims of sexual abuse. What do you think yourself?
