Nigerian Twitter is replete with savages. Savages who are ready to ‘drag’ the life out of you if you mess up.
Perhaps due to the corona virus lock down, a lot of Nigerians have enough time on their hands to treat any celebrity flaw as soon as it hits Twitter. As such, there has been a lot of dragging in recent days. Who are some of these celebrities who have attracted the wrought of Nigerian Twitter users? Read on to know some of them!
Funke Akindele
Despite the fact that Funke Akidele Bello is the love of the life of many Nigerians, she was merciless dragged on Twitter. Why? This was because she organized a birthday party for her husband. Twitter users were even more aghast because she did a video encouraging Nigerians to stay home and practice social distancing to curb the spread of COVID-19.
Juliet Ibrahim
This Ghanaian turned Nigerian Nollywood star went to Tory Lanez’s Instagram live video to say ‘If this was an African artist live video, account number go full comment section.’ Indirectly, she was referring to Nigerians who are used to dropping account numbers for celebs to send them money. Twitter users did not take this subtle bant likely, as they called her low budget Kardashian. Check out the receipts below.
Burna Boy
Burna Boy aka Ikorodu Lucky Dube by now is already used to being dragged on Twitter. However, his most recent dragging which was as a result of telling Nigerians that they deserve their leaders is perhaps the most exciting one. Here, he was tagged Ikorodu Lucky Dube. They should have even pitied him and called him Ikorodu Fela since that is his mentor!
Eh ya I see my tweet from this morning is making you all cry, remember it was directed at keyboard warriors, if you are not, you shouldn’t be upset. I never called you broke, I asked if your next meal is guaranteed cos if it’s not you see wasting your time twitter fingering

Toke Makinwa
Toke Makinwa is also not new to being dragged. For broke shaming Nigerians, she was referred to as Abule Egba Kylie Jenner. Obviously, she is not bothered about Twitter users as her fans are on Instagram praising her to high heavens.
Naira Marley
Naira Marley decides when he wants to be dragged. He simply wakes up on one random morning, posts a tweet that will make him trend and before you say, Jack Robinson, he is being dragged.
