Reality TV star and actress Venita Okpofure has sparked reactions online after sharing a candid and humorous take on her age, appearance and the kind of men who approach her in Lagos.
Speaking in a video that has since generated conversations on social media, Venita said that although she is 39 years old, she believes her youthful appearance could easily make people assume she is much younger.
According to the former Big Brother Naija housemate, she could pass for someone in her late twenties.
“I’m 39, but if I told you I was 28, you’d believe me,” she said.
Venita then turned the conversation to her dating experiences, revealing that the men who mostly approach her in Lagos tend to be younger than she is.
The actress said the younger men may not always have impressive amounts of money in their bank accounts, but they often make up for it with other qualities.
“They may not have it in their bank accounts, but they make up for it with bravery, audacity and size,” she said.
Her blunt statement immediately caught the attention of viewers, with many social media users reacting to the confidence and humour behind her comments.
While some found her remarks hilarious, others focused on her revelation that younger men appear to show more interest in approaching her.
The conversation has also reopened discussions about dating preferences, age differences and the confidence of younger men when it comes to pursuing older women.
For Venita, however, her comments appeared to be less about setting strict dating rules and more about sharing her personal observation about the type of attention she receives.
Her claim that she could easily be mistaken for a 28-year-old also became a major talking point, with fans debating whether she looks younger than her actual age.
Venita has built a reputation for being outspoken and unfiltered, especially when discussing relationships, dating and her personal experiences. Her latest comments have once again given fans plenty to talk about, particularly her humorous description of younger men in Lagos.
As the video continues to circulate online, reactions are expected to keep pouring in, with many viewers enjoying Venita’s unapologetic honesty and willingness to say exactly what is on her mind.
