Nigerian music icon, Tuface Idibia is not happy about the ruthless cyberbullying and harsh criticisms faced by celebrities on social media platforms.

In a conversation with Adesope on the ‘Afrobeats’ Podcast, Tuface described online trolls as hurtful behavior.

In a report by ghanaweb, it mentioned that the ‘African Queen’ singer described social media trolls as terrorists while frowning on the constant attacks on his family.

 “I get a lot of jabs. I got a lot of people that say stuff about me. People have trolled me several times on social media and, sometimes it hurts. Sometimes, some people will just go on social media to say rubbish. It’s just like terrorists bombing innocent people,” he expressed.

The father of seven emphasised that despite the constant criticisms he endures, none of these critics has ever stepped forward to contribute to his children’s educational expenses or help his family in any way.

“And I will start wondering how till today, none of those critics, the way they are concerned about my family, come to assist in paying my children’s school fees. Not even a single soul. Many people talk about kids, fatherhood, motherhood, all that whole circle.

“Many people talk about it with public opinion type of thinking. But it’s deeper than that. There’s nobody that has the exact blueprint for this thing,” he stated.

Tuface joins a host of celebrities who have condemned cyber bullying and trolling of public figures on social media, with himself facing the brutality of social media attacks many times.

Perhaps, in the view of the celebrities, popular figures are humans with feelings who get hurt by unwarranted attacks on their person.
