Nigerian influencer and media personality Enioluwa Adeoluwa, has shared his thoughts on subtle racism and microaggressions in Nigeria.

Expressing his frustration, particularly with foreign-owned establishments, during his interview on the Uncut Podcast, Enioluwa, recounted instances of racial discrimination he had observed within the country.

Enioluwa cited an Indian-only school that allegedly barred Nigerian students from enrolling, as well as a Chinese supermarket that reportedly refused entry to Nigerians.

He explained, “I don't joke with microaggressions and racism. In Nigeria, I heard about an Indians-only school and Nigerians weren't allowed in, also the Chinese supermarket that didn't allow Nigerians in. In big 2024, they were not allowing Nigerians in.

When people were saying 'leave them.' I was like no, you don't understand how things sink into the system. You might think it's on a base level but it's white supremacy in a way. They should close it down! It's so dumb how we're being racist to ourselves in our country, you think that this person is superior to you.”

The influencer also pointed out his concerns about colourism, stating that he actively calls out any discriminatory attitudes based on skin tone.

“Any subtle racism I encounter I can lose sleep over it and I'm not even joking, in my own country? How can someone think I'm lesser than them because of the colour of my skin. That's a problem. Even colourism, I shut it down. Nobody is higher than you.”
