Legendary Nigerian actor Segun Arinze has strongly condemned Dr. Chukwudi Jude Ihenetu, the Nigerian man who used to call himself as the Igbo King in Ghana.

In an interview with Kwame Dadzie and Doreen Avio on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, Arinze said he was shocked and utterly disappointed when he read the reports about Ihenetu, who has been parading himself as Eze Ndigbo in Ghana since 2012.

The multiple award-winning actor lashed out at the development, describing it as a complete insult to both Nigeria and Ghana.

He went further to question how the supposed Igbo King will leave his home state in Nigeria and come to Ghana to claim king.

He further threw a rhetorical question by asking How he would feel if a Ghanaian travels to his own home state in Nigeria and starts claiming to be a king there.

The actor stressed the need for people living abroad to respect the laws and customs of their host nations.
