Controversial Journalist and critic, Kemi Olunloyo has quit social media.
According to the 51-year-old activist, “I am deleting all my social media accounts... I want to get out of the computer and move into the real life.”
This is coming barely days after her father, Victor Omololu Olunloyo, apologized to all those she has hurt with her wild criticisms, saying she has a mental illness.
Kemi who has openly criticised her Mathematician-cum-politician father in the past, called the letter ‘fake’ and further claimed it was written by her rival.
She denied having any form of mental illness on Twitter, saying: "Anyone who calls me insane or mental patient in Nigeria is a low self esteemed in denial bastard. They cannot deal with the truth."
It however appears the avalanche of criticisms she has received has become too much to bear and has decided to settle for a quiet life.
According to a statement by the blogger, she will only come on social media once or twice a year like Beyonce and Jay Z.
She wrote:
“I am deleting all my social media accounts. I want to get out of the computer and move into the real life. Thanks for all the love you’ve all given me along the years. All portals Facebook, Twitter, Instagram will be deleted by 2pm.
“If I need to see anything, I will be watching more cable news channels. My fan Whatsapp number is now inactive. I will continue to blog on all my blogs listed on Wikipedia but no social shares. www.hnnafrica.com, http://ift.tt/1vXtDl2 and http://ift.tt/29AHkRi;
“You can basically compare me to JayZ or Beyonce who tweet and post like twice a year. This does not affect my fan created club http://ift.tt/29zKtFG. I don’t own that page. It was created by loyal fans. This is not a publicity stunt of any kind. This is solely my choice and I am reverting to 1999 when I blogged, made money and Twitter and Facebook etc did not exist.
Thanks to all.”A lot of people have since expressed thanks to God for her decision.
