• Cross claimed he mistakenly posted the video on Snapchat, but it has been captured by a follower, before he immediately deleted it.
Ex-Big Brother Naija season 6 Shine Ya Eye contestant and reality television star, Cross Ikechukwu Okonkwo, simply known as Cross has responded to question, on why he shared nude video of himself on Snapchat.
Recall that on Wednesday, October 27, a video went viral on the internet, which had BBNaija star Cross completely naked in a bathroom.
The video, as we learnt, was posted via Snapchat by Cross, even though he immediately deleted it, few seconds after sharing it, following a screenshot of it captured by a follower.
Reports had it that Cross wanted to privately send the video to a female friend, but didn’t realized he was about posting it on his timeline.
So, during an interview with TVC Connect, later the same day, Cross opened up that he posted the video by mistake, because, since he’s not someone who’s always on social media, he noticed that Snapchat has changed most of its features.
The reality star also stated that entertainment industry, lifestyle and social media life is very much new to him. So, posting naked video of himself on social media wasn’t intentional.
He however apologized to people who misunderstood him and are reading meaning into his mistake.
Cross said, “There’s nothing to say about it. It was just a simple mistake. It’s not a big deal. It was like a mistake.
“Like I said earlier, I’m not always on my phone. Once in a while, I use it. So, I didn’t know that Snapchat has changed a lot of features.
“So, it was a mistake, it was just a mistake of a thing. Quickly, when I noticed, I quickly deleted it. It was a mistake, it wasn’t something…
“If you understand the kind of person I am. First of all, I’m a human being. And I wear my heart on my sleeve, I literally do that. So, this social media thing, entertainment industry, lifestyle, is still new to me. I’m still trying to get the concept about it. Do this, don’t do this. It’s choking me, I just want to be me. I just want to live how I ever wanted to live.
“I am just a guy that just want to have a good time, and in the process, make a lot of money to provide for his family. Simple as that.
“So, it was just a simple mistake. Anybody that’s seeing a thing out of it, sorry.”
