Fashion designer Veekee James has revealed the betrayal she experienced from an ex-boyfriend after investing significant time and resources into setting up a business for him.
In a social live session with Pastor Bolaji Idowu, Senior Pastor of Harvesters International Christian Centre (HICC), Veekee shared a painful chapter from her past.
According to her, while a university student, she worked hard to support her ex-partner’s success, only to discover his infidelity. She recalled travelling with his mother from Akwa Ibom to Lagos to buy supplies for a unisex salon she was helping him establish. Despite her efforts, she later found messages on his phone where he was planning to meet up with his ex-girlfriend.
“Out of love, I took a night bus to Lagos with his mother to shop for materials, then returned to Akwa Ibom to set up the shop for him. I provided the capital, but the worst part was finding messages on his phone where he was making plans with his ex while I was away,” she explained.
“Although he apologised and dismissed it as a joke, I chose to forgive him and continued supporting his business, even forgoing a share of the profits. However, eventually I again decided to prioritise self-worth and end the relationship”.
