Big Brother Naija All Stars contestant, Adekunle Olopade, opened up about his feelings towards his former housemate, Venita Akpofure, who was recently evicted. In a heartfelt tribute during the Lipton Ice Tea task on Tuesday, Adekunle described Venita as the most compassionate soul he had ever encountered.
Adekunle revealed that Venita’s emotional nature had often been a source of worry for him during their time in the Biggie’s house. He spoke about how deeply she cared for others and how it sometimes led to challenging situations for her.
He stated, “I believe in second chances as opportunities to grow and learn from our past mistakes. Returning to Biggie’s house afforded me the chance to meet someone whom I can genuinely say is the most emotionally attuned person I’ve ever encountered. She possesses a heartwarming soul, one that wears its emotions openly, which may have occasionally placed her in difficult situations. I must admit that during the initial weeks in the house, I was concerned about the extent to which her caring nature might get her into trouble.”
Adekunle continued, “I witnessed firsthand how the connections she forged with those she deeply cared for often led to her own emotional turmoil and heartache. But, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, she emerged from each disappointment with unwavering hope, increased love, and an abundance of encouragement. What a remarkable woman!
“This incredible individual is also a mother to two wonderful children.”
