Instagram has again deleted controversial blogger Tunde Ednut’s account, making the blogger lose more than one million followers on the social media platform.

Mr Ednut has always been in a vigorous tussle with Instagram after creating a second Instagram account early this year which eventually got suspended a few days after and now completely deleted.

“Follow these backup and help repost. Thank you so much,” the entertainer posted on his backup page as he urged his followers to follow.

Mr Ednut was stripped of his first verified Instagram account with over 2.6 million followers and an engaging audience for violating Instagram’s terms and conditions in December.

However, he made his way back to the platform on January 10, 2021, after orchestrating a N1 million giveaway to aid his followership recovery.

He successfully recovered over a million followers in his second account.

According to reports, the blogger used his platform to engage in unpleasant activities such as body-shaming and cyberbullying other celebrities, leading to the deletion of his initial account.

The reason Instagram deleted his second account has not been confirmed.
