One of the biggest social media platforms where celebrities all over the world have been able to use to interact with their fans is Instagram.
Love it or hate it, Instagram has become the platform where celebrities show off to the world what they are up to personally and career-wise. For our Nigerian celebrities, it’s been a bittersweet story on the social media app as they get as much love and an equal amount of shading, dragging and calling out which sometimes gets really messy.
Despite the shortcomings, these celebrities have continued to amass huge numbers of followers. The numbers keep increasing depending on the influential strength of the celeb. So guys, as at the time of publication, these are the ten most followed Nigerian celebrities on Instagram.
1. Davido (9 million)
It is no surprise that
We all know Davido likes to show off his wealthy lifestyle and that’s the reason over 9 million people are stuck with him. One thing you can’t take out of context is the fact that, when Davido is in a good mood, Instagram gets a huge dose of it as he goes on a giving out spree and you just might be lucky and get that cash for that wristwatch or a car (Yes he that benevolent!).
2. Wizkid (7 million)
The Wizkid nation will for sure, after seeing the position of their general might want to recruit more fans so they can top this list when next it is released. However, Wizkid’s 7 million fans are what we can call die-hard fans. So you know, a negative comment on Wizkid’s post might make you change your name, location and maybe disable your Instagram page.
Wizkid isn’t one of those celebrities who share photos on social media every day, but when he gets in the mood, there is no holding back. His photos are different, spontaneous and very interesting on Instagram. Unlike a number of celebrities, Wizkid keeps his Instagram page strictly for the business of music and we think his fans are okay with that.
3. Tiwa Savage (6.5 million)
