She said:

“I have always tried to monetise myself in a way that is truly in line with my values. I have had to reject certain things. So, a certain company contacted me and this is actually, till today, the biggest offer I have received,” she said.

“It was about N8 million and it wasn’t that much that I would have to do, but it was for a skin bleaching brand. I was in the dilemma of taking the money but not having to do much and this is not something I believed in.

“I could have just taken the money and not care about the repercussions. There are certain things that I would not be able to do in the future if I take certain deals that were not in relation to my brand. I had to turn down N8 million so that, by God’s grace, I would make more in the future by being a person of my word.”

Khafi was one of the contestants of BBNaija reality show 2019 edition. She is currently engaged with one time housemate Gedoni after the pair got into a beautiful relationship during their time in the house.
