The acronym G.O.A.T. praises not just exceptional athletes but also successful musicians and other public figures.

It represents the phrase “Greatest Of All Time”. It is often pictorially represented with the emoji or image of a literal goat, with horns sticking out prominently.

On Tuesday, Twitter hashtags on the names of some top Nigerian artistes started displaying the GOAT emoji.

The symbol appears when these celebrities trend or when their names are searched with a hashtag symbol.

Twitter also honoured other global celebrities like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo with the emoji.

On his part, Burna Boy set a record in 2021 after his ‘Twice As Tall’ album won a Grammy award.
