Nevertheless, I commend you for standing by your tribe when some tribe wanted to rubbish who we are as a tribe. I saw post from other igbo- APC sycophant supporting everything said against their tribe. I commend you on that. I also commend Yorubas for defending everything the president is doing even though many of them are crying in the market everyday.”
