Mona Faiz Montrage, popularly known as Hajia4Reall
Popular radio presenter Fiifi Pratt has alleged that some of Hajia4Reall's friends have begun deleting pictures they once took with the socialite from their social media pages.
He made this claim in a conversation with popular YouTuber Kwadwo Sheldon on Kingdom FM, where he asked why such people are being what he termed as disloyal.
Following news of Hajia4Reall's guilty plea and its aftermath discussions, Fiifi Pratt observed, "Looks like Hajia4Reall's friends are deleting pictures they took together from their social media pages. Why are they doing that? What happened to loyalty?"
Kwadwo Sheldon responded by suggesting that individuals might be distancing themselves from Hajia4Reall because they want to avoid her issues potentially impacting them adversely.
Kwadwo Sheldon also emphasized that it is within human nature for people not to associate with failure.
"It's because no one will like to associate themselves with you so as for your issues to rub off them. If you were friends with Pablo Escobar, would you post him? Nobody will associate themselves with failure; that's how people are. As for loyalty, nobody is loyal.
"This can break her. For someone who has lived an affluent life, this is tough. Because the switch was crazy, and if she's not psychologically prepped...," Sheldon responded.
Although Fiifi Pratt did not mention names, netizens on social media have since called out Hajia4Reall's notable friends for keeping mute since her ordeal took over social media.
