A viral video of a mixed-race boy speaking fluent Igbo language with his grandmother has warmed the hearts of many online users.
The boy, whose father is Igbo and mother is a foreigner, was raised abroad.
He was taught to speak Igbo and a video of him speaking it fluently with the right Owerri accent has earned him praise from viewers.
In the video, he is heard telling his grandma that he does his chores diligently.
He said Maria is the first daughter and should be the one cooking, but he ends up doing the cooking as though he is “Jacob and his mother”.
Likening himself to Jacob amused those listening to him.
The boy added that he sweeps the house but Maria doesn’t and chooses to play instead.
The boy’s mother and siblings can also be seen in the clip.
