Anti-Igbo sentiment (also known as Igbophobia) encompasses a range of negative attitudes and feelings towards the Igbo people. The Igbo people make up a majority of the population in South East, Nigeria and part of the populations of the South South and the Middle Belt zones. Igbophobia[1] can be observed in critical and hostile behaviour such as political and religious discrimination as well as violence towards Igbo people.[2][3][4]
