Following the insensitive comment about the underaged boys detained after the protest, another user responded with a disturbing display of tribalism, writing, “Typical Yoruba reasoning, always upside down and flawed. Is it something in the ewedu you eat?”
Such divisive remarks only serve to escalate tensions, shifting focus from the actual issue—children being denied humane treatment in custody—to tribal prejudice. This approach not only distracts from meaningful discourse but also fuels harmful stereotypes, weakening the call for justice and compassion in cases of rights violations. By promoting unity and understanding, conversations can be directed toward productive solutions rather than divisive rhetoric.
