Numerous Nigerian celebrities and influencers have already flocked to Threads, the new social networking app from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
Nollywood actress Mercy signed up for the rumored Twitter rival app and then posted on Instagram about how many followers she had gained in a day.
The movie star posted a screenshot from the new social media site to express her outrage over the odd number of followers she noticed, which she claimed represented the allegedly satanic number 666.

She wrote: “Abeg, I dey fear this number wey my Followers dey. Make una Follow me small on @threadsapp make e change. Abeg 666 bawo?”
