4 Types Of Nigerian Keyboard Warriors You’d Find Online

Everyone else apart from Nigerians that is. That a Naija person hasn’t exhibited keyboard warrior tendencies means the right situation hasn’t arisen.

Oyibos may call it trolling. But yabbing and bad mouth have always been a Nigerian way of life. I bet you’ve run into the following type of Naija keyboard warriors aka trolls online:

1. The ITK trolls

We know these guys. They’re the ones who always have keyboard itchy fingers. They will dig up a post or tweet from 5 years ago just to prove a point. One of the guys in this group actually called Hermes to confirm if Linda Ikeji’s Birkin bag was original.

2.  Attention seekers

These are the ones who live for the social media validation. They will jump on anyone’s post/tweet just to be rude and get attention from you and your followers. They live and die on the keyboard.

3.  Call-out group

Do you guys remember the person that called Jim Iyke boring? Yep, that’s a call-out troll right there. They don’t have anything better to do with their time than putting other users on the spot.

4.  Clueless “follow-follow” class

These are the ones that once any of the above groups are displaying will join in. This class is just in it for the validation.
