The Nigerian Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie recently confronted Nigerians over tribalism and this is what he have got to utter.
He felt confront them amidst the rate of the unworthy disregard the Nigerian citizens portray on the Igbo Citizens amidst their English speaking accent and confronted Nigerians to wake up.
In his words, he said:
“The Chinese man speaks English with a Chinese accent. Same with the Italian, etc. But you’re cool with it cos they are white. Then your Igbo brother will speak his English with Igbo accent. And you laugh at him, ‘oh he’s too Igbotic’. Is he supposed to be Portuguese? Are you ok?”
