“You are a fool, if you think say to go beat person na show say you get power. You be ode. That’s what make dem dey catch us with that. That lack of value for each other, where we think say, yes, you must destroy an African man, you must insult, you must do your worst to African men. That’s what is f*cking our psyche up. That’s what is f*cking our psyche up. You understand? So I’m not interested in low vibration. Make I tell you wetin dey happen,” he added.
