At 9:43 pm on Monday, Megafu had tweeted that bandits shot her on a train in Kaduna State, but she was scorned and described as a clout chaser.

She had asked Nigerians to pray for her because they had shot her. Although many were sympathetic, others condemned her and labelled her a clout chaser.

Among others, Iyabo Awokoya, a popular Twitter user and apologist of the ruling All Progressives Party (APC), dismissed Chinelo’s plea and called her a liar.

After the news of her death went viral, some of those who had condemned her deleted their tweets or locked their accounts. Many of them have also publicly apologised for initially dismissing her reality.
