Qassem Soleimani’s killing: Cardi B to file for Nigerian citizenship
US rapper Cardi B has described President Donald Trump’s approved assassination of Iranian military General Qassem Soleimani as his ‘dumbest move.’
The 27-year-old singer then threw a bombshell when she announced she will be filing for Nigerian citizenship, against the fears that Americans will henceforth be unsafe in the world.
She wrote on Twitter:
“Naaaaa these memes are fuckin ?? ?but shit ain’t no joke ! Specially being from New York .Its sad this man is putting Americans live in danger.Dumbest move Trump did till date …I’m filing for my Nigerian citizenship.”
The tweet has attracted a lot of interest from Nigerians, who debated which ethnic group Cardi B would associate with. Some tweets dressed her up in Nigerian attires, with Gele to match.
When she visited Nigeria in December, she chose the name, Chioma B, an Ibo name. But confronted with the Nigerian debate, the rapper who said she enjoyed her three-day visit to Nigeria, unlike her experience in Ghana, responded in another tweet:
“Picking my tribe”
Cardi B was born as Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, to a Dominican dad and a Trinidadian mum in Manhattan on October 11, 1992. She was however raised in Bronx.
