NIGERIANS on social media have been captivated by Cristiano Ronaldo’s recent Instagram post featuring Asake’s viral hit, ‘Active’.
The vast majority of Ronaldo’s social media following is concentrated on Instagram, where he commands an audience of over half a billion—representing approximately 8 per cent of the global population.
As the highest-followed person on Instagram, the video has garnered over 33 million views, over two million likes, and over 33 thousand comments on the post. Asake’s ‘Active’ has taken a new peak and recognition. Recognising the love, Asake also reposted the video on his Instagram story.
This is the second time the footballer has shown interest in a song by a Nigerian artiste after he took to his social media to post an adorable video of his three kids dancing to the ‘Calm Down’ song by Nigerian music star Rema in March 2023.
In the new clip making the rounds, Ronaldo left many shocked, especially Nigerians and other Africans, after he used Asake's song featuring Travis Scott for one of his in-court videos.
