Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has spoken extensively on the injustice black people face, claiming that black-on-black injustice was a bigger challenge than racism.
He argued that despite racism in America, it is now a better place for black people than Africa, which is dominated by black people.
Speaking in a recent interview with BET, Odumodublvck claimed that the injustice black people have suffered in America cannot be compared to the one black people have suffered at the hands of fellow blacks in Africa.
“We cannot deny the fact that America is now a better place for black people. The things that black people have suffered in America are not compared to the things that black people have suffered in the hands of black people in Africa,” he claimed.
Odumodublvck’s claims sparked mixed reactions on social media, with many berating him for “trying to downplay” the injustice black people suffer in America by comparing it to the black-on-black injustice in Africa.
Others opined that it is unfair to compare suffering, especially in different environments.
