Nigerian journalist, Ruona Meyer has reacted to the backlash she received from fellow journalist, Kiki Mordi.
Ruona Meyer had earlier accused Kiki Mordi of taking credit of a documentary that wasn’t executed by her.
Kiki Mordi immediately clapped back at Ruona, accusing her of being jealous each time she wins an award.
She added that she is trying so hard to understand what she did to Ruona except unfollowing her on Twitter.
Ruona fired back by tweeting: “Lmao journalism ain’t rap. One pitched a story, got sources, did the indercover work, risked life for footage and exposè that your Jay-Z is selling upandan. One has suffered immense strain after, and bravely admitted publicly their grieviances, so the other should share credit/$$.
