Mr Eazi tweeted:

"I dey match, I dey match."

The mischievous X user replied:

"I for tell you say your spelling wrong byt who I be?"

In a chat with Nwaneri Onyinyechi, he noted how celebrity status and personal success can influence the way fans perceive and react to mistakes.

In his words:

"The playful jabs and the "Who English epp?" comment show how fans can overlook such errors, especially when the person is successful and influential.It reminds me that even public figures aren't immune to making mistakes, and it’s often their charisma and achievements that keep their supporters loyal and forgiving."
