 Nigerian rapper Jude Abaga, popularly known as M.I., has declared his solidarity for people from the southeastern region of Nigeria known as Igboz. The popular rapper took to Twitter to show love and support for Igboz, calling on other Nigerians to do the same, as he launched the hashtag I Am Igbo To campaign. This comes shortly after President Mohammad Abwari sent a warning that was perceived as a threat to Igboz. In reaction to the tweet M.I. posted a video with the caption, the narrative that Nigeria hates Igbo people is an outdated context that will leave with the old and bitter generation. He says, and I quote, today, let us stand with our Igbo family and say, I am Igbo too.
