Adekunle, a former participant in the 'All Stars' edition of BBNaija, recently revealed his stance on declining gifts from his fans while shedding light on his relationship with Venita outside the Big Brother house.
During a recent radio interview, Adekunle made it clear that he doesn't wish to receive any gifts from fans.
He explained that fans and shippers often have certain expectations when they support someone due to their connection with a particular housemate. Adekunle noted that if fans provide gifts to their idol and the relationship or "ship" doesn't last, they may turn on their idol and accuse them of exploiting their support.
Therefore, Adekunle has advised his own fans not to offer him any gifts, as he wants to avoid any situation where they might feel he owes them something in return.
Regarding his relationship with Venita, he described it as a ship that developed within the confines of the Big Brother house, where participants have limited knowledge of each other. Adekunle pointed out that neither he nor Venita had the opportunity to see how each other behaves outside of the house.
This revelation has sparked various reactions from netizens:
