Controversial journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has reacted to the dress given to Big Brother Naija housemate, Cee-C which she tore because she felt it was ugly.
Kemi has affirmed that Cee-C was right to tear the dress saying that it was indeed an ugly dress the organizers Payporte gave to her.
Payporte were angered by the act of Cee-C for tearing the dress which represented a princess gown worn by the royals of the Efik ethic group in Cross River State.
She later changed the dress to a crop top and this angered the organizers who blasted her for her action.
Kemi has backed the housemate over her decision saying;
THE CEE-C DRESS @ceec_official
“#BBNaija In America where I first watched #BigBrother 2001, sponsors do not talk. Viewers still don’t pay phone charges to vote till today. Of course we have no landlines left in Nigeria since our leaders looted NITEL, Nigeria’s original phone company where we could have been making toll free calls to vote now. @Payporte should NOT have uttered a word online. This is NOT about your brand alone! It is also about the young lady’s brand. This is a REALITY SHOW! This is a REAL UGLY DRESS! Keep it REAL! Let CeeC be!”
And when you seem not concerned over the culture of some other person’s tribe wouldn’t that be tribalism. That was a traditional wear made for queens and princess in Calabar, it is call Onyonyo Efik.
