Nigerian musician Iyanya goes hard on a fan who mocked him on the social media platform Twitter. Iyanya is one the bigger est musicians in Nigeria, having been in the music industry for over a decade, he expects Nigerians to at least let some respect his name. In a tweet made by a Twitter user identified as @ManLikeIcey, he made mention of Ubi Franklin who is a Nigerian politician giving shout-outs to some top Nigerian acts like Burnaboy, Davido, wizkid, and Iyanya. According to the user, he did not understand why Ubi Franklin had to give Iyanya a shoutout.


“Ubi Franklin shouted out to Davido, Wizkid, Rema, and Burna Boy for what they’re doing to Afrobeats internationally and he mentioned Iyanya too”.


Iyanya who felt offended by the user's tweet decided to give him a piece of his cake, quoting his tweet, Iyanaya replied ;


“And who are you again? Only a brainless person will try to undermine my contribution to this game to date.

You are clueless”.


Iyanya for the past few days have been going viral all over social media for taking a lady he met at Davido’s “TIMELESS” concert on a date. He later proceeded to reveal that, the lady was depressed and he wanted to be the center of attraction in her life by taking her on a boat cruise, shopping, and more. Nigerians who found Iyanya’s excuse flimsy did not buy that and dragged him on the platform for trying to snatch someone's lover although Iyanya rebuke the claims of having an affair with the said lady.


Read a few of the reactions shared by users between Iyanya and the troll on Twitter;


@siremekaarthur - 

“Iyanya from 2012 till 2015 was satin else his jam Gift with Don Jazzy was extremely mad that year that my neighbor had to name his first daughter Gift at birth bcos of the wave Tanya is big just had some slight setbacks but it's normal”.

“Nobody can undermine the contribution iyanya in

Afrobeat. Even Davido, wizkid, or Burna won't try that”.


@BigiBen925 • 

Is the disrespect on Iyanya cus he is not Yoruba? Am not comparing both but if you can call 9ice a legend in the game then Iyanya too deserves respect from you guys. At a point he was up there with Wiz, David as one of the best in the country.  Don't pretend he is just a one-hit”.


@officialece 04 • 

“Baba don't mind that guy. Who knows him in his

field? You're one of the best and biggest African

Afrobeat artist. Stay focused and keep winning”.
