A troll gets clapped back by Basketmouth.
A troll who claimed that Basketmouth is a contributing factor to Nigeria’s troubles received a snarky response from the well-known Nigerian comedian.
An X user criticized the cartoonist on the site in the wee hours of Monday, February 19, 2024, asking whether or not he supported good governance in the 2023 general election.
“Did Basketmouth vote for good governance on election day?” is the text of his tweet. A gig by Basketmouth was scheduled for February 25, 2023. He contributes to Nigeria’s issues.”

Basketmouth, unfazed by the charge, retorted sarcastically, mocking the accusations leveled against him. The comedian emphasized in a tweet how ridiculous it is to hold people accountable for the nation’s problems with its economy, infrastructure, electricity grid, and even the notorious “snake that swallowed $100,000” incident.
To quote him: “Oh yeah!!!” I suppose the true issue is myself! The $ is currently N1,700 and counting because of me. It’s me that consistently brings down the electrical grid. The refineries aren’t operating because of me. The snake that ingested $100,000 is me. I suppose I’m the one.

Basketmouth reacted to another worried fan by saying that he took action against the troll to increase ticket sales for his upcoming performance. To quote him: “Me? Oh, no market me dey sell. The entire discussion will increase ticket sales. It’s currently functional. mission completed.”
