“I am not lucky when it comes to men and love” — Brenda Biya

Cameroon’s first daughter, Brenda Biya, has created another social media sensation after she took to TikTok on Wednesday to recount one of her bitter love experiences. She ended up concluding she is unlucky when it comes to love relationships with men.

Brenda claims in the 4-minute, 38-second video that an “arrogant” American man she met online disrespected and abandoned her.

“When I say I don’t have luck when it comes to love and men, they don’t believe me, whereas it is the truth,” Brenda Biya said in the video.

Narrating what she termed an unfortunate experience, the 26-year-old said she was disappointed after sacrificing her time to meet a man who ditched her prematurely on the first date. They first met on an online app and were to have their first date on that fateful day.

“I took my bath, did my makeup, and dressed up. I entered the car and rushed to the address he sent me. When I arrived at the place, he said we should stay in my car, claiming his driver was in his car and would not be comfortable.

“I agreed and told him he could come to my car, but that my car equally had a driver. He then texted me and said, Too late’, insisting that I have to see him off to the airport.”

Brenda Biya said the man manifested arrogance and failed to acknowledge her efforts, adding that she has been unfortunate to encounter several such men in her life.

“It is not the first time that a man has disrespected me and it is not the first time I have met an arrogant man. How could he displace me at 5 o’clock in the morning just to ask me to see him off at the airport?” Brenda Biya went on.

In the video, she said she sacrificed her time and displaced herself to meet the guy because he was her “type of man”. Brenda described him as “tall, cute, and straightforward”.

Reacting to her outing, Rodrique Boris, a concerned Cameroonian, questioned why she was running after foreign men “whereas there are handsome boys in Cameroon”.

 Another social media user questioned the relevance of her problem to Cameroonians and her audience. “We are thinking about what we will eat and so far there is no solution yet. Are you talking about your beautiful life as a billionaire? Just tell us how you found the solution to making drinking water flow from our taps,” Hermann Lontio reacted.

Brenda Biya has published several videos about her private life in the past. A few days before the recent video, she dropped a video in which she said she was “disappointed” with herself “for being too naive”. She recounted how she had trusted people who used and dumped her.

In a video that made several rounds on social media in 2021, she claimed her parents, Paul and Chantal Biya, never raised her well. She said they were absent from her life and were treating her like an Anglophone Cameroonian.
