[@dboi4952]

His reaction was uncalled for. But in reality, Nigerians can be rude and the driver might have disrespected him and caused his anger. There is no evidence of what was said beforehand. Again, it was unecessary, but it might have been avoided if the driver was more courteous. He basically said dude pulled up and was like, "Come get your food". He's the equivelant of an Uber Eats driver in the US and they aren't always courteous. Just keeping it 💯

[@aardvark99rex14]

Oh please! If the driver was discourteous (there's no evidence for this) then the lawmaker could have not tipped him and then called in a complaint or given him a bad review. When this behavior is tolerated in society it will become the norm! No wonder Africa is a mess!

[@GwenYah]

That was assault. He had no business putting his hands on that man. Shame on him, and anyone else that agrees with his behavior. Disgusting.

[@yungacid1]

It was assault and battery. All over some goddamn food. Personally, I would not take that level of disrespect. I'd take the food back; he refused to pay right? He can keep it, I don't want it.

“Clearly you can tell his mixed right”, NO HE ISN’T mixed!! I can clearly tell your journalism is NOTHING to write home about, and you have NO IDEA how Nigerians look. We DO NOT have a single look being one of the most diverse looking people in Africa, yet again your assumptions is typical of most non Nigerians who “think” they know us while knowing NOTHING about us. He is 100% full blooded Nigerian, and where he is from South East and South south of Nigeria, that look is common. That is why his looks were never questioned or a subject of discussion in Nigeria, as there is nothing special or unusual about it. Btw I would advise to get your facts right before making a video, it shows unprofessionalism.

[@broncosbest6441]

You write a whole paragraph about he not being mixed and nothing about his reprehensible behaviour. Interesting. More offended by the suggestion that he may not be fully Nigerian. Unfortunately he’s demonstrating the Nigerian stereotypical behaviour that the West has labelled Nigeria as corrupt, arrogant and rude. As someone who is not Nigerian and so does not know if the stereotype has any merit please report back what happens to the politician because if it’s nothing that’s not going to help the reputation of Nigeria. Any politician caught behaving like that proven on camera would lose their position quickly in a lot of countries.

It's embarrassing really. Light skinned does not mean "mixed". Lots of light skinned Igbo folks in Nigeria.
