What are we doing to combat xenophobia, tribalism and nepotism as Africans? – Becca defends her tweet on racism

After social media users attacked Becca for her “insensitive” tweet on the going discussions about racism, the singer has defended herself with a full context to her tweet.

Last night, the ‘NO ONE’ singer had twitter buzzing after she shared her thoughts on the dialogues about racism.

Her tweet, “You are here in Africa fighting and advocating racism in the US but in your church/home, you are criticizing and judging someone for marrying a fellow African because they are not from your hometown/country/church… Damn Hypocrites!!!” didn’t sit well with many people including actress, Ama K Abebrese.

Taking to the same platform to defend herself, the mother of one says her tweet was “taken out of context”.

Sharing an image with a written statement, Becca explained that Africans back home have their own unjust systems like xenophobia, nepotism, tribalism etc to fight against and was only throwing light to these issues.
