Nigerian celebrity designer, Veekee James has thrown shade at Nigerians following Super Eagles’ defeat at AFCON.
It is no longer news that at the AFCON final which was held on Sunday, Ivory Coast defeated Super Eagles with 2-1, thereby making them the champion of the African Cup of Nations.
Veekee James who has been in the news for weeks now following her grand wedding, had taken to her Instagram page in a now-deleted post to mock Nigerians.
She expressed excitement at finally being free from the trolls and criticisms over her wedding. She stated that at least they could give her a break for now and carry their angry face.
“At least una go leave me carry una anger face Super Eagles now. Heya
Chai e no good o”.
Veekee James has been in the news ever since her engagement to Femi Atere. The couple exchanged vows at their white wedding on Saturday, February 10, 2024, which was presided over by the pastor of the Harvesters International Christian Centre, Bolaji Idowu.
As expected the wedding attracted a host of celebrities like Juliana Olayode, Eniola Ajao, Osas Ighodaro, Toke Makinwa, Priscilla Ojo, Pretty Mike, and many more.
The Final leg of the wedding was the icing on the cake, as the fashion designer broke the internet after using a team of 200 choir members.
One of the highlights of the wedding ceremony was when the bride got emotional as she worshipped God with the choristers, and they performed her song, ‘Olugbeja’.
Unfortunately, her wedding was heavily criticized by many, who believed the celebrity designer was doing too much.
Singer, Chike, who was tired of the over-the-top display and most importantly the worship session took to a blog’s comment to leave an insensitive comment. The singer told the fashion designer to rest.
Comedian Deeone took a dig at her, disclosing that Veekee was making her husband uncomfortable with all the extravagant stuff that she was doing for her wedding. He further stated that after doing thorough research on her husband, he has discovered that the husband is a very low-key and reserved person.
He revealed that she was doing too much while he also disclosed that it was possible that the husband was richer than her but did not want to make it so known.
Skitmaker, Deacon Famous revealed that Veekee James was doing everything possible to make sure that her wedding was trending.
He compared her to gospel artists Mercy Chinwo and Moses Bliss as he revealed that the two celebrities did not have to do much for their weddings to trend.
Also, singer Skales had jumped on to react by commenting with “omo”, probably alluding to the fact that it was too dramatic.
