Popular Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo sparks reactions as he educates Nigerians on what would happen if an Igbo man becomes president.

The veteran actor said this during the recent episode of The Honest Bunch podcast. Kanayo O. Kanayo stated that Nigeria may not attain its full potential unless an Igbo president comes to power. He explained that the current economic hardship in Nigeria would be a thing of the past if an Igbo presidency could be a reality.

He said, "The day you give an Igbo man the presidency of this country, that is the day Nigeria will discover why it is Nigeria. Economically, people will begin to say Halleluyah".

This triggered reactions on social media as netizens expressed their concerns about Kanayo O Kanayo's statement. See some reactions below:

@minafuropeleke said, "Economically how far South East? It’s not as if in South East Igbo’s haven’t been ruling. Economically nothing to show for it. Bad governance no dey select tribe. Imagine giving Soludo or Hope Presidency. Igbos hype themselves just as England hype their National team."
@nonyedc said, "By Igbo man he means men like Obi because I don't think he has someone like Rochas or his current state governor in mind. They are also Igbo men."
@Heisjayyy said, "Igbo man way go cheat u for business and deals na him wan boom economy? Una no well"
