A woman in search of a house in Lagos has shared screenshots of the chat between her and an agent standing in for a landlord.
Mary Ufot, from Akwa Ibom state, said the agent asked where she’s from and told her that Igbo tenants are not wanted.
She mentioned that she’s not Igbo, yet the agent told her that those from Akwa Ibom are still considered Igbo.
The exchange between her and the agent has started a conversation on Twitter about tribalism in Nigeria.
