Popular Nigerian rapper Vector has ignited an online discussion after boldly stating that "Nigeria is not the giant of Africa."
His assertion has challenged the widely held belief that Nigeria is the undisputed leader of the continent.
Vector took to Twitter to clarify his stance, arguing that while Nigeria may not be the giant, Nigerians themselves are. He emphasized the unity and strength of the Nigerian people, using a salute emoji to symbolize their collective power.
This statement comes just a day after a heated online exchange between Nigerians and South Africans, who were busy ordering bolts to waste driver's time and resources from their respective countries.
Vector's declaration has sparked a wave of reactions online, with some praising his perspective and others expressing disagreement.
