A Twitter user, responsible for uncovering an old video featuring fashion designer Veekee James twerking, has been expelled from a Twitter business community.
A lady named Aunty Akanke had shared an old video of Veekee James twerking aggressively before her transformation to a born-again state. The video gained widespread attention, leading to the removal of the individual from the community.
The community issued a public service announcement, revealing that the individual had been dismissed for violating the community guidelines.
According to the community, the expulsion was justified as the act was perceived as cyberbullying, contrary to the company’s rules and regulations.
In a Twitter statement, they said, "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.
