She detailed her experience with a voiceover:
"I'm currently on vacation and I heard there's a safari where you can walk with the lions, I took the next available flight because anything that concerns daring one's life you'll find me among.
"This is me in the Safari. We got to the lions den, these lions were not on drugs. I mean, these are wild animals, of course I would be scared at first but I just had to put myself together."
At a point in the video, the lions were seen getting intimate while the lady watched.
She revealed the statement made by the guard who was with her during the journey to see the lions:
"Tell me why the guard told me that I was too se'xy that I turned even the lion on, I just stood there and let them have their way and after everything, we started walking back."
After she shared the video online, her father came across it and sent her a voice note, urging her to be careful. He told her he could not bear to lose her or suffer hypertension because of her risky decisions.
He reminded her of a zoo in Ibadan and how the lions are caged, and the said daughter fearlessly got close to lions in a foreign land, which are not chained.
He reminded her of the zoo in Ibadan, where lions are kept in cages, comparing it with how she fearlessly walked with unchained lions in a foreign land.
"Hello precious, I've been calling you you didn't pick my call. Somebody showed me a video where you're walking majestically with lions where you go and spent holiday. Walking majestically with lion, WOW. Is that not too dangerous?
"Now, here in our zoo in Ibadan here, I think we've been there together several times, you know and see how they're caging those lions and you're now walking freely with lion in foreign land, why?
"The other time you travelled to Lebanon for holiday too, you begin to go and be flying in the sky. Now when somebody go for holiday, it's just to go and rest, relax yourself but you will be looking for something dangerous to involve yourself.
"Don't give me an hypertension,.I can't bear it. That's just too much You're my eye, Tomorrow morning I want to see you back in Lagos. Take the first available plane to Lagos."
