Award-winning Ghanaian musician Stonebwoy has criticised the growing culture of online trolling, describing social media platform X (formerly Twitter) as a “garbage dump” where some users go to express negativity.
The dancehall artiste made the remarks on January 4 while responding to a question from 1957 media at the ongoing Africa Prosperity Dialogues meeting in Accra.
“I’m not scared or afraid of trolls. People get to use X as a garbage dump, where they come to express all their negativity,” Stonebwoy said.
He further explained that deliberately engaging with online trolls does not lead to any meaningful outcome.
“I don’t trust that being intentional about trolls will take us anywhere,” he added.
Stonebwoy’s comments have reignited conversations around toxic behaviour on social media and the need for more responsible digital engagement, particularly among public figures and platform users alike.
