Nigerian sparked controversy by misidentifying Senegal's newly elected president's ethnicity as Fulani in a video.
Senegalese citizens swiftly corrected the error, emphasizing that the president is Serer, not Fulani, and condemning tribalism. They asserted that in Senegal, ethnicity holds no sway in politics, unlike in Nigeria.
Criticism was directed at the Nigerian for perpetuating tribalism and failing to acknowledge the correction. The incident underscores the importance of addressing tribalism and promoting unity across Africa.
