Hello twitfight loving tweeps, here is today's post:The power of soccer! I woke up to meet a very heated twitfight between supporters of the Nigerian super eagles and supporters of the Kenyan harambe stars. This twitfight happened when the harambe stars traveled to Nigeria for a world
cup qualifier game in Calabar. A picture of the Kenyan national team surfaced on the internet via a blog and it showed them training under substandard conditions. Obviously the kenyan tweeps were infuriated by the fact that their team were being treated badly and they couldn't hold their disappointments much longer. They came all out on twitter sending vicious tweets targeted at Nigerian FA and Nigeria as a nation ranting about their level of disappointment in the FA's incompetence. It didn't stop there, the key reason why the twitfight spiralled into a feud was because some of the kenyan tweeps had began to mock Nigerian values and societal cultures. It had spilled from soccer and gotten into to other issues.
At this point, the Nigerian tweeps were beginning to notice the buzz growing around this and replies began to drop in gradually and by the time the Nigerian tweeps got into the twitfight, one could not notice any tweet from kenyan supporters anymore probably due to the fact that Nigerians had outnumbered them about 8 to 1. Nigerian celebrities like Basketmouth and Sheyi Law also got into it by sending terrible hilarious tweets at Kenyans. Nigerian team defeated the Kenyan team in the actual game that caused the twitfight but then it was no longer about just soccer. One who did not know the origin of the twitfight would only think that Nigerians were bullies because of the amount of ferocious tweets targeted at the Kenyan lifestlyle per minute. The resultant twitfight would last 2days trending worldwide and receiving responses from tweeps from other countries.
Kenyans came up with the #SomeoneTellNigeria hashtag
