Big Brother Naija star Neo Akpofure has stated that he would willingly kneel and propose to his future wife.

According to him, kneeling to propose is a sign of respect, love, and commitment, rather than weakness or subservience.

Neo, who is unapologetic about his stance, said that if others are bothered by it, that’s their problem.

He wrote, “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.”

Neo’s declaration has garnered mixed reactions, with some people praising him for embracing vulnerability and humility in love, while others criticised him for adopting a Western tradition that may not be part of African culture.

Neo was in a relationship with his BBNaija colleague, Beauty.

The two first made headlines in July 2023 when they were spotted leaving a hotel.

Beauty’s friend and colleague, Doyin, confirmed the rumors as true.

Unfortunately, just like many Big Brother Naija relationships, theirs didn’t last, as in October, the lovebirds had unfollowed each other on social media.

Neo was also in a relationship with his co-star, Vee Iye, but they broke up around 2022.

According to reports, Vee Iye’s issue with his cousin, Venita Akpofure, was one of the many reasons why they broke up.
