In academia and the media we're always told to avoid thinking of "African" as a unified cultural descriptor. There are lots of different cultures and ethnicities in Africa, which is an enormous continent. The south coast of South Africa and the Sahara region are literally on different sides of the world. Mixing up Igbo and Fulani names from Nigeria, especially given the history of animosity between Igbo and Fulani people and then adopting dress styles more like a Zulu woman from thousands of miles away would wear, including a shell headband that apparently should only be worn by teenagers, is the sort of thing that gets celebrities crucified on social media. By the likes of Fulani and her supporters.
If the suggestions made by the anonymous tweeter are true, this is a handy smokescreen to hide behind. It also looks like Fulani was directly involved with service users of Sistah Space, despite having no relevant qualifications or experience in social work, counselling, law or similar.
Her professional background is teaching music and dance. She may well be a very skilled and inspirational teacher, but that doesn't qualify her to advise on social care matters.
