Popular Nigerian influencer Big Ayo, widely known online as 47kasz, has allegedly been arrested following a complaint reportedly filed by dancer and entertainer Poco Lee — and the drama all started with a single tweet.
According to reports circulating on X, the trouble began on April 9 when Big Ayo posted what appeared to be a condolence message directed at Poco Lee, who had recently lost his mother.
“Sending Prayers to Pocolee, losing a mother is never easy,” Big Ayo wrote.
The tweet moved fast — racking up over 500,000 views — but not entirely in the way Big Ayo may have intended. Rather than being received as a genuine expression of sympathy, the post was perceived by many, including allegedly Poco Lee himself, as an insensitive attempt to ride on the wave of the dancer’s grief for social media attention.
The backlash that followed was swift, and according to unverified reports, Poco Lee took the matter beyond social media by filing a formal complaint — a move that reportedly led to Big Ayo’s arrest on Tuesday.
The development has since split Nigerian social media down the middle, with users fiercely debating whether the tweet crossed a line or whether an arrest over a condolence message — however poorly timed — represents an overreach.
As of the time of this report, no official statement has been released by the Nigeria Police Force confirming the alleged arrest. However, sources claim that efforts are already underway to secure Big Ayo’s bail.
This is a developing story. CreebHills will update this report as more details become available.
