However, her announcement took a dramatic turn as some followers unfollowed her to push her below the one million mark. The figure fell to 998.2 and then 997.0.

She was jolted only for a while, as her followers base returned to the million mark.

A torrent of reactions captured the drama.

Here are some comments made:

Yemi Alade announced 1,000,000 followers on Twitter and people unfollowed her.

Nobody unfollowed Yemi Alade, you people should stop pushing false narratives and hate agenda. Twitter does timely clearance of bot/inactive accounts which is why her followers bounced back from 1 Million to 997K. Almost everyone would notice their followers reduced this morning.
