When a South African lady questioned why most of the men she sees marrying South African women on TikTok are Igbo, she sparked a conversation on the platform.
As she put it:
You discover a South African marrying a Nigerian when you open TikTok. That man is almost certainly Igbo. I can't recall the last time I saw an Edo, Yoruba, or Hausa male. It is almost always an Igbo man.

Then, speaking directly to the other tribes in Nigeria, she said:
"What's going on, my Edo brothers, my Hausa brothers, my Yoruba brothers—the few of us in South Africa? Why do you refuse to wed my sisters? Dashing these woman kids while ignoring your responsibilities is not enough. Igbo guys are making a strong comeback.
Since then, a lot of people have shared their thoughts on the cultural dynamics of inter-African relationships, and the film has gone viral.
