In a tweet on X, which has already garnered over 352,000 views at the time of writing, she stated:
"Igbo people are discriminated against in Lagos. I went to inspect three houses today and they told me they don’t want an Igbo tenant."
Furthermore, it is important to note that there is no law in Nigeria prohibiting people from any tribe, whether Hausa, Igbo, or Yoruba, from renting their houses or rooms to people from different tribes, classes, or religions.
