‎Igbo Men Are Not Used To Political Treachery - Pete Edochie On Why Igbo Men Are Not Good Politicians

Veteran Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie, has revealed that Igbo men are not good politicians.

‎ ‎Explaining his reason, he revealed that Igbo people are not used to political treachery, noting that many things can be overlooked by Igbo men, except treachery.

‎ ‎According to him, once an Igbo man is hurt in politics, he will make sure there's no chance to hurt him again.

‎ ‎Pete Edochie made this known during a recent interview with Afia TV.

‎ ‎He said: ‎“An Igbo man is not a good politician. And I will tell you why, people who are used to politics or the treachery that characterised politics, can overlook a lot of things. But the Igbo man is not constituted to condole treachery a second time. If you hurt the Igbo man once in politics, he will never give you an opportunity to hurt him again. He will recoil himself. That’s the average Igbo man.

‎ ‎“The Igbo man is really not constituted to sustain political treachery. The moment you exhibit treachery in your involvement with an Igbo man, they cut you off. That’s it."
