With over 700,000 fans on instagram, a celebrity would think that half the people on the site are his firm supporters. Unfortunately, popular Tanzanian artiste ‘Shettah’ learnt the hard way when he posted a ‘romantic’ photo of him and his wife sharing a kiss.
Shockingly, what he thought would bring him likes and praise from fans ended up becoming ‘hate parade’ as people criticized the couple and left a ton of insults on the comment section of the photo.
The star, who is currently ridding high with his club banger ‘Shikorobo’ featuring Nigeria’s KCee, could not handle the insults that followed on the comments sections and was forced to immediately pull the down the photo to tame the raging wrath of his fans who were mercilessly mauling his wife.
His more than 700,000 Instagram followers did not end it there as they took to digging up his past photos and continued the streak on Facebook.
Tired of the fight, the ‘Shikorobo’ hit maker wiped his Instagram account clean, then started afresh with one photo of him and his friend, whom he thanked for the musical support.
