A popular Nigerian Traditionalist and a lover of African culture, Ifa Funsho said she doesn't think the Chairman lied by referring to Igbo boys as Biafrans. She further added that Yoruba are Oduduwa boys while Hausa are Arewa boys. So it shouldn't be taken as an Insult.

"The chairman of CCT didn't lie by addressing Igbo as Biafran boys. Yoruba are Oduduwa Boys. Hausa are Arewa boys. To me. It's not an insult. It's a reminder that Nigeria has never been one. It's just people who are benefiting from it that don't want everyone to stand on their own"

She added that it only shows that Nigeria haa never been seen as one before. What do you think about Ifa Funsho's tweet? Share your comments below.
