In a recent YouTube video, evangelist Ebuka Obi expressed deep concern about what he described as division and unnecessary conflict among members of the Igbo community on social media.
He emphasized that his disappointment stems from observing a pattern in which those who publicly criticize or oppose him online tend to come from his own ethnic group.
According to him, this behavior stands in sharp contrast to the support he receives from other regions and communities within Nigeria.
During the video, he said, “The only people you will see fighting themselves on social media are Igbo people. What a shame.”
Obi highlighted that despite the demanding nature of his ministry and the challenges that come with spiritual leadership, he consistently receives encouragement from religious figures across different ethnic backgrounds.
He noted that Yoruba pastors, priests, and spiritual leaders often reach out to uplift him, showing solidarity and offering words of support. He also mentioned that he enjoys similar encouragement from Hausa men of God, who contact him frequently to motivate him in his work.
Obi stressed that these gestures from other ethnic groups demonstrate unity, maturity, and a shared commitment to spiritual growth.
Yet, despite such goodwill from outsiders, he lamented that individuals from his own Igbo community tend to be the ones who oppose him most intensely.
As he put it, “The Yoruba men of God, pastors, priests, encourage me, call me. Hausa men of God, priests call. The only people that fight me on social media are Igbo ones.”
He concluded by urging for greater unity, mutual respect, and collective progress among the Igbo people.
Obi warned that constant internal conflict weakens the community and distracts from more meaningful pursuits. Instead of tearing one another down, he encouraged his audience to embrace cooperation and constructive engagement.
