“You’ve not had light since and you can’t even afford to buy fuel and yet you want the current government to come back,” he wrote.

Nigerian singer Speed Darlington has sparked reactions online after making controversial comments about Igbo women.

While speaking about relationships and the type of woman he would want to be with, the singer shared his opinion about dating an Igbo woman.

His comments have since generated reactions online, with social media users sharing different opinions about his remarks and accusing him of promoting stereotypes.
