However, those participating in the current trend have been heavily criticized. Recently, a social media influencer who goes by the name giddywillz, took to his Twitter page and condemned the act. According to him "the silhouette challenge is not good and it is devilish. It originated in 1814, from Edo State, Nigeria. It is a demon that possesses the mind of whoever sees her dancing."

The silhouette challenge involves mostly ladies although some men also participate. The person in the video poses seductively with any piece of clothing on at the door frame with an R and B song playing at the background. Subsequently, the person turns into a black unclad silhouette against a red and black background.

Even though people are trying to make themselves happy, it is unethical to promote nudity as younger generations under 18 years also make use of the tiktok. So what are we trying to teach these younger ones?CLICK ON LINK BELOW TO WATCH VIDEO ON THE ORIGINATION
