A Twitter user who recently shared an old video of fashion designer Veekee James twerking has been removed from a Twitter business community. It can be recalled that Aunty Akanke posted an old video of Veekee James twerking aggressively before she became a born-again Christian. The video immediately went viral and caught the attention of many, including the leadership of the lady’s community. In response, the community released a public service announcement stating that the staff member involved in the posting had been dismissed for violating the community guidelines of the company. The community stated that the act was seen as cyberbullying and was against the company’s rules and regulations, which led to the staff member being sacked. The community made the announcement on Twitter.
“We take community guidelines seriously. Earlier today, we removed a vendor (Aunty Akanke) who posted a non-business video that displayed someone in a bad light, and can be regarded as bullying. This violated our commitment to providing a professional environment for customers and vendors. The PBD number signifies trust and professionalism. We cannot tolerate its misuse, as it reflects on the entire community. We remain dedicated to supporting vendors who actively engage and follow the rules. We apologize for any confusion caused by our earlier statement. Reasons for expulsion are carefully stated in the reply below.
“Reasons for expulsion:
– Posting a non-business related video: The video did not align with the community’s focus on business and she used her PBD number in the username, potentially linking it to personal matters.
Bullying: The content of the video was deemed as bullying, violating community rules.
– Disregarding community rules and values: This is implied by her not participating in training or actively engaging with the community despite receiving an invite.
