Former Big Brother Naija housemate Venita Akpofure has finally broken her silence amid swirling claims that she is pregnant for controversial street-pop singer Portable. The rumour, which went viral on X (formerly Twitter), sparked widespread reactions before Venita addressed it with a touch of humour.
Venita's Witty Response
Rather than ignore the speculation, Venita chose to respond in a way that mocked the absurdity of the internet's obsession with her name. Quoting the viral post, she jokingly wrote: "Yes with Twins …nothing I no go see for this internet with my name." Her reaction was seen as a clever dismissal of the unfounded claim.
The Origin of the Rumour
The rumour began when an X user identified as @BigDestructionn posted a shocking statement suggesting that Venita Akpofure was pregnant for Portable. The post read: "BBnaija star Venita Akpofure is pregnant for Portable keh?" This came shortly after Portable's wife, Bewaji, reportedly welcomed a baby boy, adding fuel to the online gossip.
Public Reactions
Social media users quickly weighed in on Venita's comment. User @dinho_1545 asked: "What are you saying, can't you get pregnant for portable or is he not a human being?" Meanwhile, @Juicyjeff2014 praised her dancing skills: "At least they can all confirm that you are the best dancer in the history of big brother." Others like @Sneaksdbli50354 commended her sense of humour: "Just look at this sense of humour? Very impressive. Rendered the poster in the trash it belongs." Some users questioned why she would search for her name online, with @astracoth noting: "But how do you stumble on tweets that you weren't even tagged to, to begin with? Wait, you open search bar and search your name for engagements? Sigh!"
Portable's Recent News
The speculation about Venita came amid other headlines involving Portable. The singer recently escaped death after a car crash caused by brake failure, which he shared on his Instagram story, crediting God for his safety. Additionally, streamer Carter Efe revealed a spiritual experience before his boxing victory over Portable at the Chaos in the Ring 4 event in Lagos. Portable also made news by leaking a private WhatsApp chat involving Ashabi Simple and an Islamic cleric, amid their ongoing feud.
Venita's humorous reply has effectively put the rumour to rest, showcasing her ability to handle online drama with grace and wit.
