An account known for spreading bigotry against the Igbos posted a video of two ladies dancing in minimal clothing, mocking it as the “Igbo traditional dress.” The hateful post sparked ugly conversations, including one user saying, “It is convenient for them walking around naked.” The author then added, “It’s in their blood,” implying that indecency is part of the Igbo heritage.
This is pure hate speech disguised as humor. The Igbo culture, like others, is rich, diverse, and dignified — reducing it to nudity is ignorance. Such comments don’t just insult a tribe; they fuel division and prejudice in a country already struggling with unity.
Red flag 🚩: Mocking a people’s culture is not comedy — it’s hate wearing a smile.
