Why was Ramla Ali angry at Jake Paul?

Ramla Ali was angry at Jake Paul because he was trying to polarize the poll. Everyone knows the closeness between Ashton Sylve and Jake Paul. Paul was extending his support to Sylve, and it was giving the latter an upper hand despite Ramla Ali being everyone’s favorite. Also, a Twitter account named Somali Athlete blamed Jake Paul for supporting his athlete, due to which, the result might be biased. It led to the clash, thankfully Ali chose ‘Love’ over war.
