Do Nigerian Twitter Men Hate Women? | Pulse Nigeria
A core group of male influencers have positioned themselves as captains of this "club" by building clout from consistently mocking, silencing, and gaslighting women online.
In Nigeria, this incel ideology quietly rooted itself in the X algorithm and it’s expressed through “alpha male” discourse, where young men proclaim themselves leaders of the sexual hierarchy, often by denigrating women.
Most recently, the toxic masculinity on Nigerian Twitter took a dark turn in the case involving popular philanthropist Asherkine. After he splurged on a female student, a faction of Nigerian Twitter men, without evidence, accused the girl of dumping/denying her boyfriend over it.
An unknown individual went as far as using AI to generate a fake photo of the girl with some guy whose face was covered with an emoji. The post went viral. The girl had to release a video denying the boyfriend narrative, and further investigations revealed the entire story was fabricated. Eventually, the boy behind the lie issued a public apology.
Dare I say, based?
