Veekee James has boldly responded to a critic who questioned why she is always seen with her husband and even described him as her “handbag.”
The comment suggested that her friends don't carry their husbands around everywhere and that marriage shouldn't be that way. But Veekee wasn't having any of it. Instead of getting defensive, she embraced the “handbag” description and proudly declared that her husband is indeed her handbag.
She took it a step further, describing the two of them as “padlock and key” and making it clear that she has no problem being close to her husband wherever they go.
Her confident response has sparked plenty of reactions, with many people finding her comeback both funny and sweet.

expert234: Read Quran 9:29 and Quran 5:33. The first one says you should fight against non-Muslims just because they choose a different religion.. Quran 5:33 says you should kiiiil anyone who opposes your allllla and your religion.
Sahih Bukhari 6922 says you should kiiiil anyone who leaves Islam!
You obviously haven't been reading your Quran or Hadith. Islam supports kiiilling
Sometimes I wish the way people take religion very seriously they had channeled it towards nation building the world would have been a better place.
A debate lead to killing someone? It really shows that people just hide under religion to commit atrocities as the religion is not even the problem it is the numskulls and devilish souls practicing it.
garykoeman: The president should never had allowed them audience in the first place.
Those cardinal are Peter obi supporters.
They are already political.
He shouldn’t have allowed them in the first place? Come down from your high horses he knows better not to turn them down..stop moving in circles.
Those cardinal are Peter Obi supporters? I think it has become a trend on Nairaland that when one criticizes BAT the next thing you lots shift the goal post shamelessly.
No government is above criticism as it is a way to let you know you still have a lot to correct not this lame and dodgy modus operandi that leads nowhere. The cardinal is not out of point and please clarify if what he said is the truth or not.
Bobloco: The Cardinal Spoke. They Responded with Conspiracy Theories and Attacks on the Catholic Church.
Tinubu, the Presidency, the APC, and their hordes of data boys have completely lost their composure over Cardinal Onaiyekan's interviews. Rather than confront the substance of his remarks, they have gone into full panic mode, wailing, spinning conspiracy theories, and lashing out at anyone and anything connected to him, including the entire Catholic Church.
Apparently, they expected that after the Cardinal's and the Catholic Bishops meeting with President Tinubu, he would come out with a prepared script: that Nigerians should remain hopeful, that government policies are already working, that economic prosperity is just around the corner, and that the suffering Nigerians are experiencing will soon disappear.
They wanted applause. They wanted a glowing endorsement dressed up as a pastoral message.
But the Cardinal did not deliver propaganda. He spoke about the reality millions of Nigerians are facing. And that reality does not disappear because a government spokesperson says things are improving.
If the Cardinal had come out singing, "Tinubu, on your mandate we shall stand," there would have been no outrage. He would have been celebrated as a patriotic statesman.
But because he spoke the truth as he has consistently done under every administration, they suddenly remembered that he is Catholic, and that Peter Obi, a leading presidential candidate, is also Catholic.
In their warped reasoning, any criticism of the Tinubu government by a Catholic cleric automatically becomes a campaign for Peter Obi. That is the unfortunate, despicable level they have descended to, dragging the entire Catholic Church into their religious divisive campaign simply because they cannot tolerate criticism.
Some have even gone as far as suggesting that the Catholic Church should defrock Cardinal Onaiyekan for daring to speak uncomfortable truths. Imagine demanding that a religious institution punish one of its most respected voices simply because he challenged those in power.
The irony, a government led by a self-acclaimed NADECO democrat now treats criticism as an attack and accountability as a threat. Democracy is celebrated only when it comes wrapped in praise. The moment it demands answers, it is labelled opposition politics.
I have asked one simple question: What exactly did Cardinal Onaiyekan say that is not a true reflection of the current state of Nigeria under Tinubu?
So far, not one of them has answered.
Instead of engaging with his message, they attack his religion, question his motives, manufacture political and religious conspiracies, and now seek to punish the messenger. That is what happens when defending the record becomes harder than attacking the critic.
The Cardinal spoke about hunger. Nigerians know hunger.
He spoke about hardship. Nigerians are living it.
He spoke about suffering. Millions experience it every day.
If his words are false, refute them with facts. If they are true, then no amount of propaganda, conspiracy theories, or attacks on the messenger will change the reality Nigerians are living.
Data boys are as useless as the “h” in hour lol They are highly delusional and unintelligent so it doesn’t come to me as a surprise.
All this useless old men should just rest and let us be. It is always self interest and once it is no longer there they begin to wash their dirty linen in public…we don’t care
adenigga: Nigeria’s Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has criticised Burkina Faso’s military leader, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, over his position on Sharia and governance.
In a post on his Facebook page on Saturday, Gumi described Traoré as too young and inexperienced.
He further said that the Burkina Faso’s leader is very naive to fully understand the complexities surrounding religion, society and global politics.
According to him, Traoré’s approach could create opportunities for extremist groups to exploit public sentiment and attract more supporters.
He warned that leadership decisions require a deeper understanding of social and geopolitical realities.
“Captain Ibrahim Traoré (born 14 March 1988), with his anti-Shariah stance, at the age of 38, with nothing but military training on his resume, is too naive to understand even the complicity of the society he is ruling under the gun, let alone the dynamics of contemporary geopolitics.
“He has given the extremists the weapon they need to conscript more foot soldiers against his secular regime,” Gumi said.
israelmao: A Nigerian -America engineer and Harvard graduate,Yinka Ogunbiyi, has developed HaloBraid, described as the world's first braid-assist robot designed to ease the physical strain on hairstylists and save time for saloms
The US Mission in Nigeria disclosed this is a post in X on Friday,saying the innovation had raised $7m and attracted more than 7000 salons to its wait-list.
" Nigerian-American engineer & Harvard Grad Yinka Ogunbiyi built HaloBraid,the world's first braid-assist robot easing strain on stylist & saving salons time.
"$6M raised 7000+ salons waitlisted American innovation,global impact #AmericanExcellence in action," the mission wrote.
It hailed Nigerian-American entrepreneur after she raised $7m in seed funding to launch HaloBraid, described as the world's first patiented braid- assist mechanical technology.
The funding round was led by Seven Seven Six,the venture capital firm founded by Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian,with addi investments from AlleyCorp and Bling Capital.
The funding will support the market rollout of HaloBraid,which already has more than 7,000 professional hair salons in it's waiting list.
Ogunbiyi holds a joint Master of Science and Master of Business Administration degree from the Harvard Engineering School and Harvard Business School and has a professional background in developing connected smart home appliances and consumers electronics.
The idea for HaloBraid emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic after Ogunbiyi spent four days installing her own protective knotleds braids.
Recognizing the opportunity to apply technology to the labour-intensive proces,she partnered with co-founder David Afolabi to develop an automated alternative.
However,the technology is designed to assist human hairstylists rather than replace them.
The robotic system is designed to handle the repetitive mis-sjaft braiding process which accounts for a significant part of a typical salon appointment.
Under the system,the hairstylist begins the process by parting the scalp,sectioning the hair and creating the initial anchor knot by hand.
HaloBraid
The HaloBraid unit then attached to carry out the repetitive braiding sequence before the stylist removes it to finish,trim and seal the ends according to the clinent's preferences.
PUNCH Online reports that HaloBraid is official website for the robotic braiding assistant.
Addressing concerns that automation could dilute the cultural essence of hertiage hairstyling,Ogunbiyi said, " I didn't think anything will get from the experience.[/b]
Wow Amazing..it is huge not those super highway data boys celebrates like it is a big deal.
dragunov: It goes to show that you're collecting monetary incentives for following that yellow chimp who likes to go to Bangladesh. That's why you're projecting.
saweide: Yes. You are right. It really affect me in my life. Until I move out before I begin to progress It’s always not a good thing but nowadays most ladies and guys are comfortable due to laziness and fear of uncertainties. It’s a curse living in parent house. At that age and above I concur with the writer
It is a curse living in parent house?😂 Nothing wey person no Dey hear for this Obasanjo internet.
You and the writer are obviously on the same overdose.
DMCA: imagine as my papa get big house with plenty empty rooms then i go go rent house stay when i never marry. OP u dey ment.
Your problem o.... I live and work in the same city my father's house is, parents have a 4 bedroom main house, 2 bedroom guest house, only my parents and I live there. I am not married yet, and you expect me to go and rent a place to stay? Apart from the master bedroom occupied by my parents, what happens to the 3 bedrooms in the main house and even the other 2 rooms in the guest house. You must be suffering from a complex.
Goo0dHardDick: I know people living with their parents will be mad at my post. Whatever rocks your boat. Try as much as to get money and live alone so you can experience life in full
You can tagged it as “mad at your post” but don’t tell people what to do or assume that they are not doing enough for themselves.
Life is not fair to everyone so if you respect or don’t respect them it is your business.
Goo0dHardDick: I don't take people who are 25years and above serious, once I noticed they're still living with their parents.
The moment I noticed you're still living with your parents, whether you're a guy or a girl, I'll never take you serious. I'll immediately see you as an unserious person in life.
People who are 25years and above sometimes do not have clear goals for their lives. They waste any money that comes to them. A young man of 25 living with his parents is ready to waste money on hotels esp when he wants to meet with a lady for comfort and relaxation. A girl of 25 and above sees no reason to move out of her parents house because of fear of payment of bills and house rent including feeding. I see people who lives with their parents as loosers afraid of taking risks in life, afraid of starting life and afraid of life in general.
The thing is, I have more respect for girls and people generally who lives alone than those living with their parents!
Whatever suits anyone let them do it afterall it is not a competition I still live in my parent’s house and I am super comfortable there so it is your business if you respect me or not.
marlow1962: To you ladies, if you don't serve your husband, nag him always, and bring chaos to his home, don't worry another woman will take him from you and give him the opposite things you're giving him.
At the end you will run to ticktock/ Facebook and cry.
erniok: Didn't you read the part that the money is still in the beneficiary account. If not out that our financial system yeye, this requires prompt action.
CBN talk sat no more transaction fees for money below 5k but no bank don obey till date.
The money already left the account before she provided the court order.
Court order doesn’t guarantee refund as it depends on the availability of the funds in the beneficiary’s account especially with bank apps this days that you get alert notifications in milliseconds which means withdrawal can happen almost immediately.
KontactMedia: A growing wave of public outrage has trailed allegations against fintech platform PalmPay over its handling of a ₦241,000 erroneous transfer case, with stakeholders now calling for regulatory scrutiny by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
The controversy follows a distress appeal by a Nigerian businesswoman, Mrs. Oyedeji, who claims PalmPay has failed to act despite clear indications that the recipient account linked to the transaction has been frozen.
According to Mrs. Oyedeji, the incident occurred on May 8, 2026, when she mistakenly transferred ₦241,000 from her Moniepoint account into a PalmPay account. Upon promptly reporting the error, her bank reportedly confirmed that the beneficiary account had been restricted and advised her to escalate the matter to PalmPay for resolution.
However, weeks after the incident, she alleges that PalmPay has neither provided a clear pathway for redress nor demonstrated urgency in resolving the issue, repeatedly informing her that “nothing can be done.”
Bloggers and mumu traffic how is PalmPay under fire for erroneous transfer?
First, how do one even make such foolish mistake when every app or USSD shows the name of the beneficiary before you send money.
She initiated transfer from Moniepoint to PalmPay which means she has to hold Moniepoint as most banks or fintech banks will always state a caveat “refund is not guaranteed as it depends on the availability of the funds in the beneficiary’s account”. She produced a court order which at that time the beneficiary had withdrawn the money.
I always tell people don’t always rush to send money especially big funds please check and recheck to avoid stories that touch.

Umahi is a public figure and nothing will happen to him Imagine a common man and a lady dies in your house you cannot even explain anything because you would be arrested before anything.
Umahi just Dey explain and explain tire he is still not making any sense to me. I can’t help but wonder the reason for the sworn affidavit by her father…it is so fishy and sketchy but this is Nigeria.
The dead doesn’t talk or narrate stories so it is almost a case of no substance and would die like that.
Rocky247: What a wicked country. I think these were accumulated during Buhari reign. Every individual that served under Buhari should diligently probed by this government and I hope same probe should be apply to the people serving presently under Tinubu after his tenure one way or the other.
I still wonder why past Presidents or governors cannot be probed while their aides may or may not face the entire music.
