She recently shared her thoughts on rape via her Youtube channel and started by giving several shout outs to rape victims.
According to her, an indecently dressed person is asking for rape.
She says “If you dress a certain way, and you get raped.. In my opinion you were asking for it”.
And rape is caused by war and poverty.
“I know that rape culture is part of wars, I know that when you have wars, it comes with rapes, it comes with looting, is a part of a regressive society, I know rape is a part of poverty , I know that rape is caused when the economy is not going as it is supposed to.”
She also believes relationship rapes are not true because the woman probably enjoyed it.
“There are instances that at that point in time you didn’t want it and the guy probably still had sex with you, you probably still enjoyed it o, you’re now screaming rape, that’s selfish.”

Launched in 2014 by 25 year old Nigerian, Angela Nwandu, The Shade Room is one of the fastest growing gossip blogs in America.
Following the death of her mother and separation from her father, she went through several forms of abuse in the foster system and still managed to bag a scholarship to study Accounting at Loyola Mary Mount University.
Few lessons can be learned from her style of work and gradual takeover of the blogging world and here are some of them:
Rather than posting just celebrity thirst traps, Angela is able to find the juiciest celebrity amebo on Instagram. If Rick Ross makes a comment, she sees it. If Nicki Minaj likes a photo or unfollows someone, The Shade Room notices. We’re not saying Instagram is only good for amebo though.
Not every time steal people’s pictures, sometimes credit your sources. The Shade Room plans on buying images once the company is able to afford exclusive photos.
3. Celebrities are your friends.
In the shade room, celebrities like Chris Brown and Khloe Kardashian have felt comfortable enough to air their views without trouble in the comment section. In simple terms, don’t “carry your shoulder up”.
4. Obstacles can be overcome.
Despite getting shut down twice, they managed to recover the over 2 million followers on their Instagram account. This sounds familiar but we’re not mentioning names sha.
Issues such as the Black Lives Matter hashtag and a bit of politics have been mentioned on the platform. Unless you like being known for being only good at spreading gossip sha.
6. Avoid blogging about seriously controversial issues.
After the dramatic events that followed the release of a transgender woman’s photo with Rich Homie Quan, extremely sensitive information such as private sexuality are no longer discussed on The Shade room.
