In a recent video, Kanayo disclosed that, for no apparent reason, his following has fallen from 2.3 million to 1.9 million over the previous seven to eight months.
Given that his content and engagement had not diminished, Kanayo questioned the reasoning behind the drop.
Additionally, he noted that similar decreases were being experienced by many other creators, especially Africans.
Kanayo emphasised that Nigerian creators are a major contributor to the platform’s success and should be treated fairly, and he encouraged Zuckerberg and his team to look into and resolve this issue.
He stated, “It’s concerning that my followership hasn’t increased by even a thousand in seven to eight months. As content creators, we have no control over the platform, and the way we’re being treated is unacceptable. I’m calling on Instagram’s owners to recognize our value and treat us fairly; it’s a mutually beneficial relationship.”
