Nigerian singer Chike made headlines after sending ₦1 million to a Twitter troll who claimed that the late singer Mohbad was responsible for Chike’s fame. The exchange began when the troll commented on one of Chike’s posts, stating, “Mohbad made you,” in reference to their collaboration on the song Egwu.
Chike initially responded with a sharp retort, “Your mother made you,” which led to a heated back-and-forth. The troll continued to assert that Chike’s success was solely due to his collaboration with Mohbad, mocking Chike’s streaming numbers.
In a surprising turn, Chike asked the troll for his account number and transferred ₦1 million, dubbing him “Hunger Boy.” Chike explained that he wanted to “remove hunger from his eyes” so he could see things more clearly.
This bold move sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some users applauding Chike for his handling of the situation, while others criticized him for seemingly rewarding negative behavior.
