In a bid to combat online harassment and protect the well-being of popular Nigerian musician Davido, billionaire music mogul Paul O has taken a remarkable step by offering a cash reward of N5 million to anyone who can provide useful information leading to the identification of a Twitter troll.
The individual in question had made a distressing comment, wishing harm upon the renowned artist.
The incident came to light after social media platform Instagram, specifically the account @gossipmilltv, shared the news regarding Paul O’s reward.
The billionaire’s decision to take action against the troll and offer a substantial sum of money has sparked public interest and ignited discussions on the importance of combating online abuse.
Davido, an influential figure in the Nigerian music industry, has faced his fair share of online criticism and trolling throughout his career.
However, the recent tweet containing a vile wish for the artist’s demise crossed a significant line, prompting Paul O’s intervention.
As news of the reward spread, netizens expressed their support for Paul O’s initiative, condemning the troll’s actions and emphasizing the need for accountability and responsibility on social media platforms.
