Using himself as example, Mr. P reminded fans that he is an Igbo man married to a Yoruba woman and that his tribe has no form of hatred for Yoruba.
He also accused Politicians of being behind the recent tribal conflict, claiming that they are using tribe to cover for their excuse and that the war benefits their pockets.
In his words;
“I am an lgbo man married to a Yoruba woman! Igbos do not hate Yorubas.
Neither do Yorubas hate Igbos.
Politicians are using tribe as an excuse to cover their evil
They dont like you whether Igbo or Yoruba.
They only care about their pockets. Be wiser.”
