He confronted the young black man who was in the company of his friends and proceeded to ask about the nationality of the young man.
"I was passing. I was joking with you as a black brother. Because I greet more than 4, 5 black people & they don't answer me. Are you one of them who don't answer me? Who are you from? I wanna know," he quizzed.
Upon finding out where the young man is from (Nigeria), he also demanded to know what part of Nigeria and ethnic group he hailed from.
The young man claimed not to know which part of Nigeria he was from as he had not even been to Nigeria.
The older black man refused to let the matter go and kept demanding to know his tribal origin.

Nigerian man living abroad cries out of boredom
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian man who lives abroad has cried out, saying the place where he lives is too organised for his liking.
In a TikTok video posted by @splendid_de_great, the man sat silently and sad-faced like someone who is very bored. According to him, he misses some things he used to enjoy in Nigeria, including climbing commercial motorcycles popularly called okada.
Some TikTok users who are Nigerians and reside abroad expressed the same feeling in the comment section of the video. At the moment, the video has received over 17.1k likes, and close to 700 comments.
