Neo Akpofure Pledges He’ll Kneel to Propose to Future Wife
Controversial Big Brother Naija star Neo Akpofure has declared that he would not hesitate to kneel when asking his future partner to marry him. He defended the gesture as a symbol of love, respect, and commitment, not a sign of weakness or subservience.
Echoing his beliefs, Neo said, “If you like, don’t kneel to ask your woman to marry you, that’s for you. Me, I will kneel with happiness and a big smile on my face. And if that bothers you, I pray you don’t heal from that headache it causes you.” He made clear that he’s unapologetic about his stance.
His remarks have divided public opinion. Some admire his vulnerability and humility, seeing the kneeling as a romantic and respectful tradition. Others argue it’s a Western import that may clash with African cultural sensibilities.
Neo has previously been involved in relationships with other BBNaija stars, including Beauty Tukura and Vee Iye, though those relationships have since ended.
