On August 27, 2019, Huddah Monroe sparked controversy with her comments on Nigerian men, who she accused of abandoning their children and being overly focused on sex.
Monroe's comments came in response to a video circulating on social media showing Nigerian men arrested in America for fraud.
She criticized Kenyans for displaying xenophobic tendencies, using a small percentage of Nigerians as evidence to prove that all Nigerian men are fraudulent.
Monroe argued that Kenyan men are complaining about Nigerian men because they feel Nigerian men have 'taken all our women.' However, she pointed out that Nigerian men's alleged promiscuity and abandonment of their children are the real reasons behind the ire of Kenyan women.
Monroe's comments sparked a heated debate, with many taking to social media to share their thoughts on the matter.
