Italian-Nigerian singer, songwriter and businessman, Charles Onyekachi Onyeabor, has called for a more honest conversation about racism and wickedness in African societies, urging fellow Africans to stop placing the blame solely on white people.
Onyekachi, who is the eldest son of legendary Afro-funk musician William Onyeabor, in a post on his social medi page, said while history cannot ignore the atrocities committed by white colonialists and slave traders, it is also true that wickedness is not exclusive to one race.
He challenged the widespread belief that white people are inherently more evil, arguing that Africans have simply chosen to ignore the strategic way in which other races operate, especially in protecting their own.
