If an Igbo man marries an Igbo woman, he should be jailed – OAP Freeze

Cool FM’s On-Air Personality, OAP, born Ifedapo Oyerinde, popularly known as Freeze, has said religion and tribalism were the major problem of Nigeria, cautioning if religion and tribal sentiments were not set aside, the country will remain divided.

He posted on his instagram account-@daddyfreeze, saying, “Religion and tribalism are the tools utilized in dividing Nigeria.

Advocating for a cross-cultural marriage, Freeze said, “What would I do if I were elected president of Nigeria in 2019? Someone asked.

“Well I would sign a bill into law, punishable with a minimum of 5 years in prison and maximum of 15 years in prison, any marriage conducted by 2 members of the same tribe; meaning that if a Yoruba man marries a Yoruba woman or an Igbo man marries an Igbo woman or a Hausa man marries a Hausa woman, they along with their parents, the bridal team and the groomsmen would all spend a minimum of 5 years in prison.

“Also anybody involved in the wedding e.g caterers, m.c, musician e.t.c, would also be charged and if found guilty would also be guests at the state penitentiary.

“This I would enforce with a ‘marriage task force’ that would go to weddings to ensure compliance.

“When we do this for 10years and all of una marry una self, make we see how una wan dey fight,” he quipped.
