The time has arrived for internet trolls to revel in their actions, and singer Chike has just contributed to this phenomenon by generously giving money to one of them.
The sequence of events began when a troll claimed that it was Mohbad who propelled Chike’s music career, which greatly angered the singer and sparked a heated exchange of words.
Chike engaged in a verbal altercation with the troll. At a certain point, the troll asserted that Chike’s music had low streaming numbers on various platforms, insinuating that without Mohbad’s influence, he would not have achieved forty-million streams.
Chike replied;
”Now I doubt your mother even made you right. If she didn’t teach you manners she should have taught you research. I for send you like 1M now, make hunger comot your eye make you see road but your account fit collapse. Let the good guy rest in peace.”
Despite facing slamming, the troll remained persistent and shared his bank details.
Chike, undeterred by the troll’s negativity, generously sent him a whopping one-million Naira and encouraged him to satisfy his hunger, as his trolling seemed to stem from a place of need.
Chike engaged in a conversation with the troll, who proudly proclaimed that without his trolling, he would not have received such a substantial sum of money.
Chike’s unconventional act of kindness sparked a multitude of reactions online, with people expressing their thoughts and opinions.
