PHOTO: Enugu Govt takes out full page newspaper ad for Chiwetel Ejiofor

Ellen DeGeneres to Chiwetel Ejiofor "Where are you from?". Chiwetel "I'm from London". Ellen: Originally from London?. Chiwetel: Yeah. But my family is Nigerian.

Enugu state government, una hear? Chiwetel says he's British in case y'all are considering giving him an Ibo wife & chieftancy title. Lol. #kidding. Congrats once again to Chiwetel for his BAFTAs win.

Enugu state, where Chiwetel's father is from, took out a full page ad in The Nation newspaper to congratulate Chiwetel for his BAFTAs Best Actor win.
