Nigerian fashion queen Veekee James turned 30 with a Lagos bash that had jaws on the floor, thanks to her record-breaking 20-foot, ₦18 million birthday cake—the tallest in Africa, per her baker.
The 30-tiered stunner, which took 18 hours to craft, was the centerpiece of a star-packed soiree with big names like Iyabo Ojo, Hilda Baci, and Osas Ighodaro. Veekee, famed for her invisible corsets and a $30,000 wedding gown, went all out, but the cake’s price tag has X users buzzing.
Some stan her lavish vibe, while others, like @ChuksEricE, are throwing shade, saying, “You have no business spending 18 million naira on a cake while people are hungry.” Talk about a sweet controversy
