Nollywood star Genevieve Nnaji has reacted to a controversial tweet advising Igbo men against marrying women from their own ethnic group.

The X user had urged Igbo men to go to East Africa and pick a wife instead of being accused of raping their own daughter by their Igbo wives.

“Dear Igbo men, instead of marrying Igbo woman that’ll falsely accuse you of raping your daughter, better look outside for a wife… Go to East Africa, especially Rwanda and pick a damsel,” the X user wrote.

Responding, Genevieve Nnaji, who is an Igbo woman from Mbaise, Imo State, said, “In other words, instead of checking yourself and taking accountability, go for the unsuspecting and carry on with your evil. Got it.”

Some argued the tweet targeted false accusers, not all women, but Nnaji stood her ground, stressing the dangers of stereotyping
