"I Am Not Yoruba, I Am Nigerian. We Are One" - Falz Says. Gets Blasted by tendingNews: 5:33pm On Dec 28, 2018
Star singer, Falz The Bahd Guy, shared this video sponsored by Ford Foundation, aimed at promoting 'One Nigeria'.

He captioned it:

"I am not Yoruba, I am Nigerian. We are One"

Although the video is an interesting one, passing good message, but Falz's caption didn't go down well with a lot of people who slammed him.


Twitter user @EbubeIsaac reposted the video with Falz caption and wrote:

"You're a Nigerian because you belong to the Yoruba, a tribe indigenous to Nigeria before Independence. If Nigeria ceased to exist, you'd still be Yoruba.

You're not Nigerian before your tribe, you're Nigerian because of your tribe. You people need to stop this rubbish."


Some others have also slammed Falz for the caption.

Watch the video below and kindly indicate what you think about the video and Falz's caption...

So what Falz is saying is that it was a white man called Frederick Lugard who gave him his identity?

Seems like he's not a proud Afonja. Perhaps their incessant mining of skulls coupled with some dispicable atrocities has forced him to stylishly disown them. It's a shame

Watch how some of those who will come here to reprimand Falz are the same ones screaming how Nigeria was formed as a divine project.

Nigeria is a shameful product of British criminality.

The level of your poverty is high.

Change your thinking and associate your self with good people next year in respective of their tribe. Also go to city not that your local village.

God bless Yoruba people

Nice one from Falz. This is the only way Nigeria will progress where by everyone puts tribalism aside and focus on a brighter Nigeria.

As long as he carries the green passport, he is first identified as Nigerian. I first introduce myself as Nigerian before explaining which tribe I am from.

As for the one who said he is yoruba that is why he is a Nigerian what of those children born in America and Europe and identify themselves as citizens even though none of their parents are Americans or Europeans.

I agree with Falzl I am human first then a Nigerian before anything we need to stop dividing ourselves along ethnic and religious lines.
