Nigerian actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday has expressed her viewpoint on the online dispute among Nigerian celebrities.
She believes that celebrities who engage in public arguments on social media do so solely for the purpose of gaining attention.
During an interview with Hip TV, Nkechi Blessing stated, “My thoughts on celebrities bashing each other on the Internet, I feel it’s some form of publicity stunt.
“By the time they come out on social media to exchange words, is either they have a new single coming up or they’re about to drop a song. So most times when I see celebrities fighting online, I just walk away because most times we sit down and plan these things.
“Sometimes, it’s not actually bad blood. As I said they might want to release a single so they will need all the clout and engagements to get their songs out there in your faces. So that’s it literally.”
According to Wakadaily, there has been a rise in dispute between popular Nigerian celebrities on social media, with them openly engaging in heated arguments and encouraging their fans to join in.
