Controversial social media critic, VeryDarkMan, has sparked a new political storm following his reaction to Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma’s selective celebration of Super Falcons players, accusing him of promoting ethnic bias.
In a video posted to his social media page, VeryDarkMan condemned Governor Uzodinma’s decision to invite only seven Super Falcons players of Igbo descent to a state-organized reception
VeryDarkMan described the move as a “tribal bigot act,” argued that the WAFCON title was a collective achievement by players from all ethnic groups — Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, and others — and should not be reduced to a regional narrative.
Governor Hope Uzodinnma's decision to honor only Igbo players drew sharp criticism from the outspoken activist. VDM expressed deep disappointment, stating that singling out only Igbo players for recognition undermined the spirit of national unity that the Super Falcons represent.
Many Netizens are supporting Gov Uzodinnma's decision stating that the federal have already hosted and honored all the players collectively, so these is nothing wrong if the governor decides to do a regional reception for the Igbos among them
