Big Brother Naija star Sheggz has come to the defense of his girlfriend, Bella, following criticisms of her speaking voice. Sheggz, addressing the issue on Twitter, criticized the trend of faking accents and praised Bella for her authenticity.
He expressed disappointment at the ongoing body shaming and negative comments aimed at women in 2023, emphasizing that such behavior is unacceptable.
“So it’s now cool to be faking accent. I love the fact that my woman is real, true to herself. I think it’s sad that in 2023 people want to body shame a woman and speak down on her. It will never be ok and if she overreacted then it’s understandable because enough is enough.”
Recall that Kemi Filani had previously reported that Bella Okagbue, had directly confronted a troll who mocked her singing voice. The exchange, reported by Kemi filani, showed Bella responding fiercely in the troll’s direct messages, cursing the troll and also defending her Nigerian accent. She also expressed her frustration with constant body and voice shaming.
The troll later claimed the comment was not intended to be hurtful, however evidence of consistent trolling over several months was uncovered by Bella’s fans, suggesting a pattern of intentional provocation.
This incident follows closely on the heels of Bella’s recent outcry about not being liked by some Nigerians after they trolled her for stating that her and boyfriend Sheggz were too expensive to work with.
