Reality TV star Neo Akpofure recently took to Twitter to address speculations surrounding his financial independence and status
Neo, known for his stint on Big Brother Naija, expressed frustration at those insinuating that he relies on others, particularly women, for financial support.
In a passionate Twitter rant, Neo expressed his hard work, dedication, and self-sufficiency. He adamantly stated that he hustles like he’s broke, expressing that any success in his life is attributed to the grace of God, not external forces. He urged people not to diminish the role of divine intervention in his journey and requested that disrespect be reserved for those who deserve it.
The social media storm followed a viral video of Neo purchasing an ice jewelry piece, sparking rumors that it might be a gift from his girlfriend, Beauty Tukura, a fellow Big Brother Naija alum.
Also, the speculations had gained momentum as Neo, during his time in the Big Brother house, had made remarks about girls not being able to afford him. This led to assumptions about a possible price tag associated with dating him.
Responding to a Twitter user questioning the reactions he received, Neo affirmed his earlier statement about girls not affording him, maintaining his statement even months later.
”yes I did and months later You still can’t afford me. Go outside and touch grass”
Recall that Neo and Beauty Tukura were recently spotted at an event, holding hands and sharing coy smiles, providing evidence of their romantic involvement. Beauty further fueled speculation by posting pictures on social media wearing Neo’s cardigan and clothes.
