Under the video of two Hausa men being attacked in the East, another user dropped a disturbing comment: “I sha hope say when Hausa start with them in the North, they won’t start crying Christian genocide or tagging USA as the coward wey dem be.”
This is the kind of rhetoric that pours petrol on an already-burning fire. It frames ethnic violence as a game of “your turn, our turn,” as if human lives are bargaining chips in some twisted scorecard. Worse, it casually anticipates bloodshed and mocks the idea of people seeking help if real danger arises.
Turning ethnic tension into a threat is reckless and inhumane. Instead of condemning the initial attack, comments like this push for escalation — forgetting that it’s ordinary people, not online warriors, who suffer when violence is reciprocated.
