Ghanaian gospel musician, Florence Obinim in an interview has disclosed that she is unfazed about social media trolls because she receives more blessings and gains more positive assets when trolled.
Speaking ‘in an interview, she noted that some social media trolls are hurtful with their utterances. But as a Christian, one must learn to deal with the persecution.
“I will always get trolled so far as I have chosen to be a follower of Christ. Jesus Christ was spoken ill of, how much more me, being a follower of him. Trolls do not get to me. Sometimes when people criticize and speak ill of you, they have no idea that it is rather taking you to the next level. Trolling is like an exam for Christians, and I am a Christian. So, I do not get so bothered”.
