Rapper Ms Jorji has alleged that Nigerian dancer and entertainer Poco Lee attempted to sexually assault her and her friend during a 2024 encounter in Dallas, Texas. The allegation follows reports of Poco Lee's arrest in the United Kingdom.
Details of the Alleged Incident
According to Ms Jorji, she and her friend visited Poco Lee at his apartment after he invited them over. She said she was seeking advice about starting her music career at the time. Ms Jorji alleged that Poco Lee made unwanted physical advances towards her before allegedly doing the same to her friend and attempting to pull her into another room.
Ms Jorji said they resisted him, managed to leave the apartment, and drove several hours back home that night.
Reason for Delayed Reporting
Explaining why she did not report the incident at the time, the rapper said she lacked the confidence and believed people would not believe her because of Poco Lee's status in the entertainment industry. Ms Jorji said she was speaking about the alleged incident now following recent reports concerning Poco Lee, adding that she believes the allegations against him because of what she claims to have experienced herself.
Broader Industry Allegations
Ms Jorji also alleged that she has encountered other people in the music industry who made inappropriate sexual propositions in exchange for career opportunities. The rapper has not provided additional evidence or filed a formal complaint regarding the alleged incident.
