U.S record producer Tory Lanez chatted with fans on his Instagram live and Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim left a comment on his timeline.
The 34 year old vlogger and mum of one said:
“If this was African artist live; account numbers go full comment section ooo”
“Chai MILK THAT SOME PEOPLE NEED TO FEED IN AFRICA“
This has led to her being dragged on Twitter for portraying Africans as poor to someone in Diaspora. See the exchange here…
Juliet Ibrahim wasn’t totally wrong. She used a wrong platform, but we as Africans must learn to face the truth.

I don’t have any problem with the first comment Juliet Ibrahim made about Nigerians dropping Account details on everything because it’s true. I have a problem with the Milk statement she made. What does she mean by Milk people need to feed in Africa. That’s so degrading.
