Social media sensation Comfort Emmanson has skyrocketed to over 32,000 Instagram followers just one day after her release from detention.
Her Instagram following leaped from a modest 4,000 prior to her incarceration.
The Ibom Air passenger first went viral after a mid-flight dispute with a cabin crew member.
Her case was recently dismissed following an intervention by Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo, lifting both her travel ban and legal charges.
Netizens have shared mixed reactions online:
@Allezamani quipped: “In this country, you need jail time to become famous – what kind of system is this?”
@tounbrown observed: “Sometimes adversity becomes the unexpected stepping stone”
@GuyMr0 joked: “Let’s be real – most of these new followers are thirsty guys 😆”
@ehimaggie cautioned: “She’s attracting the wrong crowd!
Too many shady profiles following now.
Hope she stays alert!”
@MsVotie noted: “The irony? Half these new followers probably shamed her wardrobe choices before”
@iam_Bonex commented: “That cabin crew’s attempt to humiliate her accidentally became her biggest career boost 😂”
