One of Nigeria’s most popular actors, Yul Edochie has questioned why Nigerians laugh at fellow citizens who speak English with an accent.

He pointed out that such people have no problems with a Chinese man speaking English with a Chinese accent.

But when an Igbo man speaks English with an Igbo accent, he’s laughed at and called Igbotic.

The actor tweeted: 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?
