A Nigerian postgraduate student was jailed in the UK for raping a 17-year-old girl in Bradford and sentenced to 10 years in prison. While the post was meant to inform the public about the conviction, one comment decided to shift the focus from the crime to tribalism, saying “These eastern niggas man.” This unfairly links the suspect’s tribe to the offense, fueling ethnic prejudice instead of addressing the actual crime. Criminal behavior should never be tied to a person’s ethnicity — such comments only promote hate and deepen Nigeria’s tribal divisions.
