Xenophobia: YCee Calls Out AKA Over His Past Tweets About Nigeria
Nigerian artiste, YCee called out South African rapper, AKA over his past comments during the AFCON match where Nigeria’s Super Eagles won South Africa’s Bafana Bafana.
After the match, AKA tweeted that it is a ‘hard pill to swallow‘ loosing to Nigeria and he wished they lost to Egypt rather than Nigeria. He also tweeted that, “this match was bigger than football, why do we always lose to Naija at everything?”
Following the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians, YCee stated that there is a subtle dislike most South Africans have for Nigerians and he recounted AKA’s tantrums when South Africa lost to Nigeria.
‘There is this subtle dislike that a lot of them (If not all) feel towards Nigerians and no matter how hard they try to hide it .. it eventually jumps out – like when AKA had a full childish grown man tantrum when they lost to Nigeria in the nations cup,” he wrote.
In reply, AKA said it was just a football banter but YCee argued that there were underlying implications in his comments.

Bro if you refuse to see the underlying implications of what you tweeted
There’s really no need for the back and forth
As public figures we should always recognize the strength our platforms carry! I have no agenda or narrative to push
I’m just deeply hurt and that’s that! https://t.co/E0kKdA3fVt— ZAHEER! (@iam_YCee) September 3, 2019
