Nollywood star Yul Edochie has lashed out at Nigerians who mock their fellow Nigerians for speaking English with an accent.
The actor in a tweet shared on his social media page pointed out that such people have no problems with a Chinese man speaking English with a Chinese accent because he is white and they consider it a cool act but when an Igbo man speaks English with an Igbo accent, he’s laughed at and called Igbotic.

The Chinese man speaks English with a Chinese accent.
Same with the Italian, etc.
But you’re cool with it cos they are white.
Then your Igbo brother will speak his English with Igbo accent.
And you laugh at him, ‘oh he’s too Igbotic’.
Is he supposed to be Portuguese?
