Primo slammed fans who called him out for his questionable tribal comments ahead of the 2023 presidential election in Nigeria.
Primo hit back at fans who called him out for his questionable and controversial comments, which were tribally motivated. The singer had stated that he would not vote for presidential candidate Peter Obi because of his race.
On December 31st, 2022, Primo responded to a tweet that talked about all candidates running for the presidency; His comments caused a general uproar on social media. He shared a comment that read:
Maybe… however I wouldn’t choose to get close sure of it… And since the Southwest unites us all, Flagos for accuracy!! …come or it rains…lol…BAT is…NVM!! .. There will be no chaos .. And the East is painful enough to shake everyone when the power goes there, in addition to these matters.
You don’t respect my intelligence nor my choices…you try not to accept resolve…argue any more…pls…. It is not wise to elect him yet, he may have to organize his home front clearly to lead the rest of us… perhaps it would be safer for the Igbo vice chief first to test the waters with the region!
These comments were met with negative reactions from Nigerians who questioned this view, and some fans unsubscribed the singer as an artist they liked. This prompted Primo to share another comment that read:
I can’t believe a whole tribe of people, not as many as 2 people came out to say “there’s a point in what Primo says”.. instead you all went and found sparse tweets to attack..fuck you all! ..
