Nigerian Rapper, M.I Abaga has showered accolades on his fellow colleagues in the industry that are of Igbo Ethnicity.
This coming after President Buhari via his official handle on Twitter reacting to the agitations from the South East.
The president in his tweet said he would deal with those who are too young to understand what occurred during the civil war in ‘language they will understand’
This tweet led to an outcry on the bluebird app mostly especially from Igbos who slammed the President for marginalization.
M.I reacting to the whole drama in a tweet asked for solidarity from other ethnic groups to support the Igbos.
In his words;
“The narrative that “Nigeria hates Igbo people” is an outdated context that will leave with the old and bitter generation Today let us stand with our Igbo family and say #IAmIgboToo“
In another tweet, he praised Igbo Artists like A-Q, Blaqbonez, Don Jazzy, Flavour, Chidinma, Phyno and other Media Personalities.
“To my brother @thisisAQ to @BlaqBonez to @kelechiamadiobi @Nobsdaslushhkid @chidinmaekile @DONJAZZY @2niteFlavour @phynofino and all the amazing Igbo people that make our wonderful country what it is!!!! We love you!!! We stand with you…”
All of us non igbo Nigerians should make tomorrow a day of solidarity to stand with our Igbo brothers and sisters.. we cannot fix years of hurt.. but we can with one voice say "we are one.. we are together!!!"
Even if na only me do am I go do am
What # could we use?
