YouTuber Eve Mungai has criticized her ex-boyfriend and fellow content creator, Director Trevor, following his recent criticism of her interview with Simon Kabu.
In a statement shared via his official Instagram page, Trevor attacked Mungai, saying her interviewing style was disappointing, terming it unprofessional, embarrassing and lacking objectivity.
While emphasising that the interview lacked the merits of an appropriate interview, Trevor observed that Eve should apologise and re-do the interview.
“That trending video of Simon Kabu is honestly disappointing. The interviewer crossed the line, it was unprofessional, embarrassing, and lacked objectivity. They should publicly apologize and redo the interview properly. Simon is truly a patient man,” he wrote on his InstaStories on Friday, December 13, 2024.
But in a subsequent rejoinder, Eve clapped back at her ex-lover and other critics saying creators should focus on their craft and not pounce on trending topics to seek relevance.
She also thanked her fans for supporting her amid the criticism meted on her.
“Love to see my work out there, I welcome both positive and negative criticism been in this for 4 years and everything I do must trend! Lol it’s my work to ensure you guys talk about me and I love it. Thanks for the continuous support tribe.
“Now let’s put in more work in our crafts than waiting for who is trending to jump into it for relevance. Same people criticizing my work ndio nikipost bikini wanasema ooh no content unapost tu matako very confused elements! Let’s focus on important things and mind business that pays us!” she said.
Eve came under sharp criticism over the interview where she asked Kabu about his estranged marriage after she relentlessly coerced Kabu to give details of his marriage even after he declined to engage on the topic.
A section of viewers expressed displeasure in what they described as uncomfortable questions about the businessman’s marriage.
“Personally you guys have disappointed me I would not lie, why do we have to get to know all this about you guys?” Eve posed.
“You know I don’t want to discuss that issue because Sarah is the mother of my kids and so the far that it has gone I will not want to discuss it,” Simon replied.
