Controversial Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu has taken a swipe at popular fashion designer Veekee James after she shared a video of herself and her husband, Femi Atere, on social media.
The heated exchange began when Veekee James, who often showcases her partner online, posted a video on her Instagram account on Tuesday as part of the ‘very demure’ trend popular among tiktok content creators. In the video, she offered advice to women on how to be submissive to their husbands, detailing the ways she cares for her partner. The post quickly stirred a mix of reactions across various social media platforms, drawing both support and criticism.
One of the more vocal critics was actor Uche Maduagwu, who took to Instagram to express his disapproval. He argued that continually flaunting her husband was unnecessary, asserting that marriage should not be regarded as an achievement. Instead, Maduagwu advised that Veekee James should focus on promoting her husband’s business, suggesting that this would be a more meaningful accomplishment.
In a caption accompanying a video where he called out the fashion designer, Maduagwu wrote, “Veekee James, #Marriage is not an ACHIEVEMENT, post #videos of your Husband’s Business to grow and #promote his brand. You are trying to make it look like Marriage Na Achievement the way you Dey constantly post you Na marriage as if you OWE Nigerians Weekly updates of Wetin Dey happen for your HOME, that’s WRONG, post your husband business too Na Veekee James, or don’t you know if you promote his business like you #post you Na marriage, if him business GROW, will that not be a REAL Achievement? #couple #veekeejames.”
