Former Big Brother Naija housemate Victoria Adeyele, popularlyknown as Vee, has taken to social media to shared her thoughts on thecontroversy surrounding Nigerian designer Veekee James’participation in the ‘suspect challenge’ with her husband Femi Atere.
In a recent TikTok video, Vee acknowledged that while the content may not align with her personal preferences, she understands Veekee James experience as a seasoned content creator. Vee emphasized on the fact that Veekee James knows what she is doing.
She said, “When I first saw this suspect challenge, I knew it’d be a problem because not everyone can take opinions very well and also because I’ve always seen social media as a double-edged sword. You can control the content you put out there but you cannot control the opinions that would come out of the content you create.”
“Veekee James has put out her own suspect challenge with her husband and they have both shared opinions of themselves, which are a bit private. While it may not be my own cup of tea, I do understand that Veekee James has been a content creator for a while, and I’m sure she has her own team who put the content together; they watched and edited the videos. So they know what they’re doing basically.”
“I need to put it out there that if her intention is to get people talking about her, she’s doing a great job. But I don’t understand why people get so riled up when they are discussing Veekee James and the content that she makes. At the end of the day, it’s her cross to carry; social media comes with a lot of discernment and so far she believes what she’s putting out there makes sense to her; there’s not much we can do about it, she added.“
Vee’s stated that she isn’t the biggest fan of couples content but Veekee James and her team know what they are doing. Vee’s comments offers a balanced perspective on the matter, recognizing both Veekee James’ agency as a content creator and the public’s right to opinion.
