Comedian AY pleads with Nigerians to stop criticizing Alex Iwobi

Nigerian Actor and comedian AY Makun has pleaded with Nigerians to stop criticizing super Eagles star  Alex Iwobi, emphasizing the harmful effects of cyberbullying.

The football player for the Super Eagles was forced to remove his Instagram account as a result of persistent criticism from Nigerian fans.

AY Makun responded by posting pictures of Alex Iwobi’s contribution to the Super Eagles’ accomplishment in earning a spot in the African Cup of Nations and a description of the negative effects of cyberbullying.

The comedian asked Nigerians to give the football player love instead of criticism.

In his word“Anyone can become a victim of cyberbullying. Malicious information posted on the Internet can spread far and wide at an instant, and it is always difficult to be deleted completely. The immediacy of the spread makes it hard for victims to defend themselves or take precautions. The harm caused by cyberbullying is always ignored by computer or mobile phone users.

It is so sad to see how you all have exhibited various forms of cyberbullying on a young man whose only crime was to come and represent his father land. Tomorrow, you all will still be wondering why the likes of Saka and others are never going to play for Nigeria?

It’s time to think beyond your personal interests and look at the negative effects of your evil actions. Let’s help promote a culture of care and respect on the Internet and prevent cyberbullying. Kindly share a ❤️ for @alexanderiwobi on this post.
