“Fashion with a touch of insanity… You know it’s not appropriate for your chest to be exposed.. but you went ahead to wear clothes that expose it”
@AgbaFeeder commented:
“I don’t even have any issue with the camera man or her chest but the husband that follows her about every time like he has no tangible thing doing with his time. He should be a Man and stop living in a woman’s world. Leave the position of bodyguard to those trained for it.”
@echomaa said:
“Why do you put on such clothes if don’t want Dem to video your chest, some ladies are just stupid in nature”
@FolaranmiM3144 pushed back:
“Now, she can’t wear what she want cuz there are dumb people roaming around the streets. Una Dey talk ooo”
@agbevem offered a more measured take:
“She’s so conscious about her chest being snapped. Maybe she had an experience of that sort. Those videographers sometimes will be doing too much.”
@UTDGrant_ kept it blunt:
“If you no want make they video your chest you no go stay house”
