Suddenly, in response to the alleged threat, made a video saying she was not afraid.
On how the fight started, Bashir Bala, a TikTok user, was quoted as saying it dates back to more than a year ago.
“In my opinion, this fight between Aisha Zaki and Suddenly is just a battle for who is more popular on Tiktok,” he said.
“At first two of them started by boasting to each other about what they have and later they started abusing each other because Aisha Zaki is based in Saudi Arabia and works there.”
While Bala called on the authorities to intervene, Abdullahi Haruna, spokesman of the Kano state police command, said the incident is currently being investigated.
