A former housemate of Big Brother Naija Reality TV show Pere Egbi says a Nigerian politician has in the past told him that an Igbo person from the South East region of the country can never rule as president.
The reality star stated this in a tweet she shared on his Twitter handle.
According to him, the hatred against the Igbos in Nigeria is real and something needs to be done about it.
He wrote, “The hate against the Igbos in Nigeria is real. I AM NOT even Igbo or Yoruba or Hausa and I feel for them. Someone who is in politics once told me that “an Igbo person can never rule Nigeria”. If say Jesus no hold my right hand that day, I for slap am. Online I see lots of hate toward the Igbo tribe. This is coming from people within the political space. We have a serious problem in Nigeria and we need to be honest about it and face it head on. This is unfair”.
