Businesswoman Jaruma stirred controversy after claiming she didn’t marry for love but for social media content, comparing her situation to Veekee James. Nigerians reacted strongly, criticizing her for projecting her personal issues onto others and questioning her statements about arranged marriages in the public spotlight.
Businesswoman Jaruma recently sparked controversy with her statement about marriage, claiming she didn’t marry for love but for content, comparing her situation to Veekee James, who allegedly "rented" a husband for social media content. Jaruma’s comments quickly ignited reactions on social media, with many Nigerians criticizing her for projecting her own situation onto others.
One user pointed out, “When people make mistakes, they look around for others to share the blame.” Another commenter questioned, “How can you confidently project your own situation on someone else?”
Some expressed sympathy for Jaruma’s struggles, especially with her mental health and alleged addiction, but also highlighted her tendency to deflect from personal issues. “I feel sorry for her, but when asked a question, why drag others like Veekee James into it? Focus on yourself,” a user commented.
Others were more direct in their criticism, stating, “Just because your marriage failed doesn’t mean other celebrity marriages are like that. Talk about yourself and stop dragging others into your mess.”
