Big Brother Naija Lockdown’s former housemate, Vee Iye has called out Nigerians over their double standards.
The reality star, in an interview with Moni Talks, opened up in-depth about her failed relationship with costar, Neo Akpofure. Vee Iye noted how if she was the one who was repeatedly kissing a former housemate who belittled her and her partner, Nigerians would eat her raw. But yet, they didn’t say anything when Neo did it by kissing Tolanibaj who was always talking down on them.
Vee Iye also revealed that after she and Neo broke up in August 2022, they tried giving their relationship a second shot but they got into an argument over Tolanibaj and that was the final straw.
“In August 2022 few months after we broke up, Neo and I tried to make things work and we argued about Tolanibaj. He said I was parano!d and overthinking things, after that day we never spoke to each other”
“If the roles were reversed and I was the one who was k!ssing repeatedly a former housemate who spoke down on me and my partner and said the classist things about us three years ago, Nigerians would eat me raw”.
Taking to the comment section, many concurred with her as they sent her encouraging words.
One Bad Network Angie wrote, “They can gaslight and manipulate you
One Enojoan wrote, ‘She is right tho! But moving on is the best option
One Zainab Sanee wrote, “Neo is for the streets Vee you deserve more
One Onyi Love wrote, “Vee deserves better. Neo is for the streets, he still wants to flirt around, so let him continue flirting around
One Stonks Meme wrote, “I just love the growth in Vee. One could see how much she weighed her words and didn’t say everything that must have been in her head”.
Elsewhere in the interview, she disclosed that she and Neo couldn’t work because of Tolanibaj who was a big obstacle in their relationship. She admitted that if she had gone for the All-Stars show, she would have lost her mind and would’ve ended up being disqualified.
She noted how many made her feel like she was overreacting to Tbaj, who had an interest in Neo but was pretending.
Vee Iye stated that their breakup wasn’t dealt with the right way and a lot was swept under the carpet. However, she feels good to know that she was right about Tbaj’s interest in Neo.
Recall that Neo dated Vee Iye, while they were in the Lockdown Big Brother house and after the show.
Their break up came as a shock to many who anticipated their relationship graduating into marriage.
According to reports, Vee Iye’s issue with his cousin, Venita Akpofure was one of the many reasons why they broke up.
In a chat with some Twitter users, Vee suggested that Venita did her bad while she was still with Neo. Refreshing your memory, Venita had gone on a rant expressing her displeasure on how Neo was placing his love life above other things.
Opening up about their breakup in an interview, Vee revealed that she and Neo ended amicably without any drama.
According to her, their relationship was good till things turned sour, and then they decided to pathways, and admitted that she was hurt over their break-up as she never thought that it would badly affect her.
Neo Akpofure, on the other hand, had claimed that Vee wanted him back and regrets losing them. A claim that Vee Iye strongly denied.
