Veekee James has been under fire for publicly flaunting her affection and financial dominance in her marriage. Remember during her traditional wedding, she was seen spraying money on her husband and people were saying “E come be like say na she marry the femi nawa oooh.”
Also, her frequent social media posts about her husband has been criticized by some like Blessing CEO who told her to keep her marriage off social media to protect its sanctity.
Public reactions to Regha’s comment has been mixed and CelebrityNote has gathered some notable comments:
@SimoncoleB said: “What our mothers did cannot be replicated with most of today’s woke Gen Z women. Even with advice from wealthy and wise women like Pastor Mrs Ibukun Awosika .it’s still a herculean task”.
@JacobAmeh6 said: “That’s true… but look at it from another angle. As a man in a situation like this, you should be humble, subjective and supportive in any way you can… till you get back on your feet. Even when you’re back on your feet, still maintain your initial responsibility.”
@lumen5000 said: “A woman’s breadwinner is not new. It’s even common now. If you know you can’t manage it well, please leave somebody son alone.”
@talk2_joseph said: “If your mum is or was the bread the breadwinner of the family, its not same in the East, women are meant to be pampered and treated nicely not to be hustlers.”
@ketodoug said: “I know a Christian sister (Jehovahs Witness) who is the breadwinner and she doesn’t show it. You’d never guess (Ephesians 5:24)”
On the other hand, Veekee James had earlier defended her public display of love and partnership. On International Men’s Day, she praised her husband for being gracious in the face of online criticism, she said “You are humble and you don’t let your ego get the better part of you. You see us as a team and I’m grateful to God for you”
