Recounting a near assault, she had experience some years back with an Igbo man, she once dated. She took to the platform to reveal why she can’t date or marriage Igbo men.
@AweleOkolo in her tweet alleged that Igbo men derive pleasure in beating their women, and further recalled how her boyfriend almost slapped her leading to a breakup. Read her tweet below;
”Igbo guys receive joy beating their partners, reason why I’m not ending up with one… Fyi: no guy has ever hit me in my full life, my first boyfriend is from Owerri, he raised his fist to hit me one day because I embraced a male friend of mine, I left with him there and then.”
The tweet had sparked outrage amongst many Nigerian who found the tweet insulting and untrue. Many had blasted the lady for inciting and creating a false stereotype about Ibo men.
