Veteran Nollywood actor Pete Edochie has shared his thoughts on why Igbo men often struggle in Nigerian politics.
Speaking in an interview on Afia TV, the respected actor said the average Igbo man is not wired to condone political betrayal more than once, making it difficult for them to survive in the world of politics where treachery is common.
“In politics, people are used to treachery. But the Igbo man is not constituted to condone treachery a second time,” he said.
Edochie explained that once an Igbo person feels betrayed, they tend to cut off the relationship completely — a trait that makes it hard to build or maintain political alliances.
“The moment you exhibit treachery in your involvement with an Igbo man, they cut you off. That’s it,” he added
