A lady said to trace her origin to Brazil and Syria has captured the hearts of many Nigerian folks.
The lady believed to be in her mid-twenties or early thirties speaks Yoruba fluently and also possesses a Nigerian accent.
In a video on Instagram, the said lady and a young man engage social media users. The young man tells the lady she is not Nigerian but the young spirited woman believes others.
She was born and raised in Nigeria, the young man who, is Nigerian and Lebanese and comes from Yoruba admitted. However, he, Mr Olu, believes she cannot claim to be fully Nigerian, something even he does not do.
The lady thinks otherwise of herself.
“Let me tell you why I claim Nigeria. I was born here, yes. I was raised here, yes,” she said.
She however said, ” I don’t know my country.”
Nonetheless, she later admitted that Nigeria “literally brought her up” and hence can claim it as her country.
“At least I am proud, I am part of the people. I can stand with the people and I don’t think I can continue arguing with you.”
Reacting to their conversation, some Instagram users wrote: “Bro she sounds more Nigerian than you sef.
Love how she acknowledged and gave accolades to the country that brought her up.”
Another wrote: “Babe got a Yoruba accent even before speaking.”
If she was born in Nigeria, by naturalisation, she is Nigerian.
Below is a link to their conversation.
