Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that an oyinbo man in Dubai amazed some Nigerian Igbo men shopping for clothes in a video posted by comedian Mc Zanzino on Instagram.
In the short clip, the white man conversed with four Nigerians who walked into his shop to buy clothes.
His conversation with them was so fluid. The oyinbo man even did the popular Nigerian handshake to show them he knows their culture.
Posting the video online, the comedian said that Nigerians already 'corrupted' the white man in Dubai as he said "Nigeria to the world".
