We are convinced that somewhere, etched in historical data, Hollywood actress Kerry Washington might be a titled Ibo woman.
The ‘Scandal’ and ‘Fixer’ actress, showed off her Igbo writing prowess when she congratulated Genevieve Nnaji on the submission of her movie, ‘Lion Heart’, in the International Feature Film category of the 2020 edition of the Oscar Awards.
As expected, an excited Genevieve took to Instagram to share the news and express her gratitude at the development.
Then comes in Kerry Washington somewhere in the comment section and congratulates her, writing in Igbo language.
Genevieve quicky replies in kind, cementing their sisterhood as Igbo kindred.
This is not Kerry’s first attempt at being Igbo, as she is married to former NFL player, Nnamdi Asomugha and a while back took to Twitter to wish Nigerian Hollywood actress, Uzo Aduba of the series ‘Orange is the new Black’ a happy birthday in very fluent Igbo.
