Henshaw commented, "Na so dem go take pieces you for ritual...Yeye mindset," suggesting the girl’s choice could lead her to become a victim of ritualistic harm.
Her statement quickly drew criticism from social media users who found her comments insensitive. Some accused Henshaw of justifying femicide.
One user on X (formerly Twitter) questioned, "This is so wrong to say. How is murder justifiable?" In response, Henshaw wrote, "That's the value she placed on herself with her words and actions. That's how she reduced herself to be used by all and sundry. That's the green light she has put on but that's OK with you."
Other users also condemned her remarks, arguing they were harmful and could have been worded better. One person commented, "Such a harmful mindset, honestly. She deserves to be butchered?? Coming from an older, accomplished woman. This could have been an impactful moment for you to lead younger girls to be better. But of course, if a girl is used for rituals, she must’ve deserved it."
Henshaw defended her stance, responding, "You can continue to justify her, putting herself on such a low rung of the ladder. Lead her to be better?? Can she not see her mates and how they do not choose this mindset of hers?... Is she the only one?" Yet, another comment countered, "Her mindset is wrong, but nothing can ever justify murder," reflecting the broader sentiment of concern over Henshaw’s approach.
