A dirty social media war between popular
gossip blogger, Linda Ikeji and Afrobeat musician Wizkid has kept the
social media buzzing since the weekend.
The battle which started as mere
shade-throwing a few months back took a new turn on Sunday, after the
blogger afew days earlier, reported that Wizkid’s rent in his Lekki
abode had
expired and that the musician was threatened with eviction.
The musician, replied by posting some
unprintable comments on the blogger’s Instagram page. Wizkid also
bragged about his achievements at 25 while he berated Ikeji for not
measuring up to that when she was at that age.
In addition to deleting the comments and
allegedly blocking comments from the musician’s fans on her Instagram
page, the blogger posted an article on her blog refuting allegation of
wild romance between her and the musician’s director as claimed by the
musician in his first reaction.
She had also added that the musician’s Porsche automobile was on hire purchase.
But that was not the last as Wizkid came back to brag about his “foundation” aiming at sending “1000 kids to school”.
Reacting to the conflict described by
some as cyber bulling and counter bulling, some fans of both media
personalities have taken sides with their favorite celebrities.
The social media war between the duo has
also brought their maturity under the scrutiny of social media users,
with many concluding that both sides cannot be regarded as a standard
when it comes to maturity.
