Fans react to news of Wode Maya's channel getting hacked

Below are some thoughts YEN.com.gh gathered about the rather unfortunate development.

RGM Wonder Boay said:

Same thing happened to me somewhere 2021 on a day I released a song. They privatized all my videos and started live streaming on my account. I had to change all my informations (Password and Username) it happened continuously for about a week before I successfully got it back . I’m sure he’s going going to get it back cuz his videos are not deleted, they are made private.

Persons like Wode Maya should not panic at all sine his work is highly accredited and recognised by government authorities and even African Americans . YouTube will re-fix this easily for him.

He have to be very careful with his people and also logins to certain website these are the only way to get his account hacked. May God protect us all. This will soon bounce back by the help of youtube moderators. We love you Maya❤
