Something’s Off With You!” – Oyemykke Points Fingers At Igbos Amid Rising Calls For Nigerian Deportations Abroad (Video)
Oyemykke has stirred controversy after alleging that Igbos are contributing to the negative perception of Nigerians abroad, which he claims is fueling growing calls for their expulsion from foreign countries.
Reacting to the recent “Nigerians Must Go” protests in Ghana, the social media personality—whose real name is Abisoye Olukoya Michael—claimed that although no specific ethnic group was mentioned by countries like Ghana, UAE, or Kenya, he believes the blame falls on the Igbo community.
Taking to Instagram, Oyemykke stated that there’s a recurring pattern of complaints about Nigerians—especially Igbos—across countries like South Africa, Dubai, and Kenya, suggesting it’s not just coincidence. According to him, “All these countries can’t be wrong.”
He also compared foreign criticisms to local sentiments, saying that the same issues raised by citizens in other nations mirror complaints from some Yoruba groups in Lagos. He accused Igbos of attempting to dominate areas they move into, both internationally and within Nigeria.
Oyemykke stated:
“You can’t always play the victim. When different countries complain about the same thing, maybe it’s time for self-reflection. The Ghanaians, South Africans, Kenyans, and even some Nigerians in Lagos are all raising similar concerns.”
He emphasized the need for Igbos to be more mindful of how they integrate into new environments, advising them not to impose dominance when in someone else’s “home.”
He concluded by reminding that internationally, people are seen first and foremost as Nigerians—no matter their ethnic background—because of the shared passport and identity.
