Veteran Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji has responded to a netizen who advised Igbo men to leave Igbo women and look for wives abroad.
A photo of a Rwanadan woman who is said to be a fiancée to a man from Anambra was shared online.
A netizen reshared the picture and wrote, “This is what am talking about!
“Dear Igbo men, instead of marrying Igbo woman that’ll falsely accuse you of r4ping your daughter, better look outside for wife.
“Go to East Africa, especially this Rwanda and pick a damsel. They’re all over social media and you can link up with them.”
Responding, the actress condemned the tweet, stating that the netizen was advising men to go for unsuspecting women instead of working on themselves.
She wrote, “In order words, Instead of checking yourself and taking accountability, go for the unsuspecting and carry on with your evil. Got it.”
Another X user responded to Genevieve, saying: “His tweet was clearly against false rape accusers, but instead of holding the evil women accountable and demanding change, you chose to tweet this?”
And the actress hit back, writing: “The same way a woman can’t tell an abusive man apart from a good one is the same way you shouldn’t say avoid all Igbo women. ‘Not all women’.”
